My work with Wendy Yu and her partner Ji Liu, concert pianist, culminated in a glamorous event that made them into darlings of the red carpet. For this special evening, the pair were introduced to the ins and outs of supporting charities by working with the British Heart Foundation, all while getting the opportunity to mingle with successful people from all walks of London life: icons of pop culture, celebrities, politicians, and influencers.

My special skills in facilitating introductions made sure that they were able to form lasting connections with these fabulous people – and get great photographs in the process! I even invited my brother, the celebrated mentalist, to participate in the festivities, because I knew this would be an event to remember.

Queen Charlotte's Ball 2015


Lukas Kroulik - Creative Director, Visualiser and It-girl Maker


Theme: Cinderella


Held at the dreamlike Kensington Palace, this year’s ball served as a fundraiser for Children with Cancer UK with debutantes dressed in the designs of Emma Victoria Payne to a Cinderella theme, but it also served as a beautiful setting for the story of a girl who made an effortlessly elegant debut in the London Season.

Wendy Yu was new to London, and she came to me hoping to learn all the things that a debutante trained in the British tradition should know if she wants to make her debut. It was my pleasure to introduce Wendy to all the right people in British society, and her charm and grace captured the hearts of everybody she met, and the international media as well.




In her efforts to impress her parents and make them proud of their daughter, Wendy underwent a profound transformation. She began her journey as a determined young woman, and with my guidance, she glowed with all the elegance and light of an evening star.

In my work, I made every effort to help every girl making her debut to feel her very best, and Wendy’s story is an inspiring example for her spectacular success.

 

In their Wikipedia entries, the famous Malaysian Yeoh twins list the London Season’s Queen Charlotte's Ball, held at dreamlike Kensington Palace, as a highlight of their time in London, alongside their studies at King's College law school.


The ball, designed and led by Lukas as the London Season's creative director, featured Rachel and Michelle as the very first Malaysians and the very first twins to appear in this signature social calendar event.


Today, Rachel and Michelle are leaders in the fashion world. Both served together on the advisory committee for the British Fashion Council, which determines the allocation of funds and grants given to designers.

It was a joy to work with Rachel and Michelle Yeoh from Malaysia. They were so fashion forward already and their very polished style and manners stood out to me.


I taught deportment and how to curtsy.
