Welcome to the first post in a new exciting series of How-To party articles that will show you how to turn your ordinary kids party into a high-end designer event. We’ll be covering five major fashion labels in this series and how to throw the most glamorous and elegant designer themed birthday parties you’ve ever seen. This is definitely for those extra parents who want to splurge on a great party, not just for their children, but for the adults as well – because why shouldn’t the ‘rents also have a little fun?

Our first installment is none other than renowned French design house, Yves Saint Laurent, also known as Saint Laurent. This fashion house was founded by Yves Saint Laurent and his partner, Pierre Bergé in 1961, with its first collection in 1962 – and they’re still going strong. So, without further ado, here’s How To Throw An Yves Saint Laurent Party:

1) Hire a Private Chef

Nobody should have to cook their own food for a glamorous designer party. Want a pro in the kitchen? Food Fire + Knives allows you to book the best private chefs in your area.

2) Invite Models

Did you know that you can hire models to come to your party? This curious service is known as ‘ambiance modeling’ and the statuesque beauties create an atmosphere of sophistication. You can also hire models to be waiters at your party, serving an elegant adult table or bringing cupcakes and milkshakes to the children. Check these out: Book Models and Runway Waiters.

3) Yves Saint Laurent Kids Fun Stations

Just because it’s a designer party, does not mean that the children have to be prim and proper. You can still let the children run free in their designer wear and enjoy activities like slime making, tie-dye and a cookie and YSL cupcake decorating station. Your private chef is sure to be able to whip up delicious treats for these. In the cities we serve, Yombu also has professional kids party entertainers that are thoroughly comfortable with any theme and venue, coming to your event to keep the children busy – it’s super easy to book them and everything can be managed online.
