Alex Scott and girlfriend Jess Glynne looked more than loved-up at the launch party of Chioma Nnadi’s first issue of British Vogue as Head of Editorial content on Thursday.

Celebrities descended into Ladbroke Hall in Notting Hill to celebrate Chioma’s first issue since she replaced Edward Enninful, the outgoing editor in chief.

And supporting the former US editor, who relocated to the UK following her new role, Alex and Jess made a cosy appearance together.

Singer-songwriter Jess, 34, looked stylish in a brown suit and tie, while the sports presenter, 39, wowed in a sexy sheer dress.

Alex flashed her underwear in the semi see-through garment and clung tightly onto Jess’ hand as they posed for a photo.

Star of the show Chioma, 44, looked exceptional in brightly-coloured orange trousers with matching court heels and a stylish black blouse with a pink flower motif.

Chioma, who was previously praised by Anna Wintour for her ‘impeccable’ reputation, will be the first Black woman to edit the fashion magazine.

Her outfit featured towering green platform heels, a unique brown mini dress and a spiked faux-fur coat. 

British radio host Clara Amfo, 39, looked sensational in a leggy thigh-high split red and white gown as she arrived at the event.

Bel Powley, 32, showcased her svelte physique in a semi-sheer lace corset dress with a flowey skirt. 

Bridgerton star Nicola Coughlan, 37, looked stunning in a pleated black jumpsuit with a ruffled bustier.

Chioma is known as the ‘nicest person at Vogue’, before the announcement, an insider told The Times: ‘Chioma is a great choice. She is serious and clever and really knows her stuff. She doesn’t suffer fools.’

‘Chioma isn’t the terrifying fashion editor of old,’ another Condé Nast insider said.

‘She’s quite shy one-on-one, and very calm. She’s one of those people that pauses before she answers a question.’

While a veteran fashion PR said: ‘Off the record, [Nnadi] is the nicest person I’ve ever dealt with at Vogue.’

Her mixed-race and multi-cultural background makes her stand out in the world of fashion, she has said.

Speaking at the Council of Fashion Designers of America in 2018 she claimed: ‘Too often I look around . . . fashion week and I’m one of a handful of black and brown faces. Black creatives are underrepresented at every level . . . Racism is a systemic problem’.
