Over the past year, Walk Backstage has asked a galaxy of stars to share their NYE party tips. Ahead of the big day, find suggestions on everything from which cocktails to serve (Jane Fonda is a martini woman) to the best thing to wear for a confidence boost, below.

Olivia Rodrigo
Do you have a favourite party outfit?
“I love wearing a little Réalisation Par dress with Doc Martens.”
Kate Moss
How do you avoid the bores at a party?
“I don’t gravitate to bores, and they don’t gravitate to me.”
Marc Jacobs
How do you get the party started without getting drunk?
“Dance!”
Jane Fonda
How should I take my martinis?
“[Record producer] Richard Perry, with whom I lived for six years, makes the best. My favourite is a lychee martini with Chopin Vodka.”
Neneh Cherry
What music should I put on while I’m getting ready to go out?
“‘Otedola’ by Dice Ailes. Skepta put me and my daughter Mabel onto it when he came back from Africa, and we’ve been listening to it non-stop in the house ever since.”
Joan Collins
What’s the best party you’ve ever been to?
“One I’ve given.”
Billy Porter
What song always gets people on the dancefloor?
“‘Got To Be Real’ by Cheryl Lynn, because there’s sass.”
