WHY VENICE IS A FLOATING FANTASY FOR AMAZONICA

From sublime hotel rooftop views to hidden museums and occult stationers, the A-list’s go-to party DJ finds her alternate reality in the Italian city

WHY VENICE IS A FLOATING FANTASY FOR AMAZONICA

What's your favourite destination and why?

Venice, because it’s the only place that I visit and feel as though I’m in a completely different world. Like I've gone back in time thousands of years and am in a fantasy. I've been going every year for over a decade now, and Venice Film Festival is one of the best in the world. The most glamorous and exclusive thing I've ever attended in my life.

What’s your favourite destination and why?

Venice, because it’s the only place that I visit and feel as though I’m in a completely different world. Like I've gone back in time thousands of years and am in a fantasy. I've been going every year for over a decade now, and Venice Film Festival is one of the best in the world. The most glamorous and exclusive thing I've ever attended in my life.

When were you last there and who were you with?

I was there last year to DJ at the Hotel Cipriani during the film festival. I was flying solo, but everyone was there when I got there.

Where do you like to stay?

The St Regis on the Grand Canal, which is fabulous. One time, I walked in, got in the lift and Catherine Deneuve was in there. It’s very Old Hollywood there. The patio is so historic and there's a very instagrammable dock as well. When you walk out you're right in the shopping district, so there's loads of places to eat.

What are your favourite restaurants?

Review: Need a sound night's sleep? These earbuds can even cancel your neighbours

I am incredibly noise-sensitive. I have the disposition of an irritable bat, which is only exacerbated in a sleep setting. And I have neighbours whose noise is constant: coughing, kids screaming, shouting.

Shabana Mahmood faces revolt over her asylum changes

DAILY MAIL “For the millions in this country who want an end to unchecked illegal migration, Shabana Mahmood’s proposals for a Danish-style asylum system are a decent start. There are simple, commonsense tweaks to rules widely regarded as far too generous. A key sticking point will be Mahmood’s struggle to sell the proposals to her own backbenchers.
