After the glitzy red carpet on Leicester Square in London, it was time to party for the cast of Practical Magic Two on Wednesday evening.
Nicole Kidman, 59, and Sandra Bullock, 62, led the partygoers at the Broadwick Soho hotel after kicking off their global promotional tour for the highly anticipated sequel.
The on-screen sisters dazzled in their contrasting world premiere looks, Nicole in a custom silver Chanel dress with a cascade of chains and pearls, while Sandra opted for a strapless leopard print dress from Givenchy.
The afterparty was held at Flute, the glamorous cocktail bar in Broadwick Soho with a lush rooftop terrace, although the London rain undoubtedly kept the fun indoors.
Nicole made sure her custom-made Chanel didn’t wrinkle as she traveled the short distance from Leicester Square to Soho in a Mercedes-Benz Sprinter van, allowing her to stand tall in the figure-hugging sequin dress.
The party was a family affair as Maisie Williams and Joey King, who play Sandra’s character’s daughters in the sequel, also made their glamorous arrivals.

Joey, 27, was still wearing her custom Miu Miu dress from the premiere and sported newly dyed red hair.
Maisie, 29, was the epitome of chic in a red corset-style dress that showed off her many tattoos. The custom Ellie Misner dress was reportedly inspired by Sandra Bullock’s red carpet look at the Forces of Nature premiere in 1999.
Also celebrating the premiere were Stockard Channing and Dianne Wiest, who play Nicole and Sandra’s eccentric aunts in both the original film and the sequel.
Stockard, 82, cut an elegant figure in a dark blue suit after appearing on the red carpet for the first time in two years.
Dianne, 78, meanwhile, was simply chic in a flowing black dress.
Practical Magic Two reunites Nicole, Sandra, Dianne and Stockard as the Owens family.
Nicole reprises the role of Sally Owens and Sandra as Gillian – two sisters from a long line of witches trying to live a normal life despite a family curse.
While Stockard and Dianne return as Frances and Bridget Owens, the aunts who raised Sally and Gillian, the roles of Sandra’s daughters and the next generation of Owens sisters have been recast for the sequel.
Evan Rachel Wood and Alexandra Artrip played Sally’s youngest daughters in the original 1998 film, but Evan, who was 11 when she played eldest daughter Kylie, revealed that despite being offered to return to her role, it was decided her role needed to be recast.
