They’re back…and just as fabulous! To celebrate the release of Absolutely Fabulous: The Movie (in cinemas 1st July 20163), Stolichnaya® Premium vodka is partnering with Fox Searchlight Pictures to add an extra dash of glitter to the party.
ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS: THE MOVIE sees Edina and Patsy still oozing glitz and glamour, living the high life they are accustomed to; shopping, drinking and clubbing their way around London’s trendiest hotspots. But when they accidentally push Kate Moss into the river Thames at an uber fashionable launch party, Eddy and Patsy become entangled in a media storm surrounding the supermodel’s untimely demise and are relentlessly pursued by the paparazzi. Fleeing penniless to the glamorous playground of the super-rich, the French Riviera, they hatch a plan to make their escape permanent and live the high life forever more!
Inspired by the highly anticipated film, Stoli has created a series of suitably marvelous cocktails fit for the Ab Fab ladies.
