Mischa Barton, Azealia Banks and Benedict Cumberbatch were a few of the guests to attend the Serpentine Gallery summer ball in London's Kensington Gardens yesterday evening (June 26).

Other stars at the leafy event, which was hosted by designer Leon Max, included Holly Valance with her property developer fiancé Nick Candy, Nancy Dell'Ollio wearing a strange Cleopatra-inspired headdress, actress Jaime Winstone, and presenter Donna Air.

Artist Tracey Emin, Made in Chelsea's Amber Atherton, Mika, Lorraine Kelly and Lydia Hearst were also invited to quaff champagne and view contemporary art while US singer and rapper Banks entertained with her DJ set.
