Title: The Dorchester

Description: The Dorchester opened its doors for the first time on April 18th, 1931. A Gala Luncheon was held to mark the occasion with a guest list from the cream of society, including the Foreign Secretary Sir John Simon, Lord Halifax, the BBC’s Lord Reith, Marchioness Curzon of Kedleston, the Earl of Rosebery and Margot, Countess of Oxford. The colossal, pillarless Ballroom, with its mirrored walls set with sparkling studs, just as now, could accommodate a thousand in splendour. The Dorchester was immediately adopted for the grandest balls and parties of the Season. The Dorchester soon became synonymous with all that was most fashionable in British society.
