Late twenties: fourteen women between 25 and 29, and the pastimes that grew into crafts

Between twenty-five and thirty, a hobby often stops being merely a hobby. The weekend sailor learns to read a tide; the woman who first picked up a violin as a child now hears a quartet the way a sommelier tastes a wine. The fourteen women in this band, aged 25 to 29, form the largest age set in the edit, and nearly all of them have a pursuit they have taken that far.

It shows at dinner as a quiet assurance. They know what they like and why, choose from a wine list without ceremony, and talk about their own subject with the lightness that only comes from knowing it properly.

Late twenties, in the edit

On the water, the road and the slopes

Cindy and Michelle both sail, Cindy blonde and slim with a film camera always packed, Michelle 173 cm and dark haired with a cocktail shaker at home. Thea cycles and walks hills, Vanessa keeps her Sundays for long rides, and Laura rides horses at dawn and skis all winter.

In the concert hall and the cinema

Karolina plays the piano and follows each opera season at Covent Garden, close to her home. Samanta plays the violin and listens to chamber music at Cadogan Hall, a few steps from Sloane Square, with total concentration. Danielle has a classic film for every mood and a poem for most of them.

At the easel, the wheel and the cutting table

Patricia paints in watercolour, usually the squares close to her Belgravia home. Milena throws pots on a ceramics wheel and has no patience for a lazy glaze. Nora and Tina both design clothes, Nora in a sketchbook of dresses, Tina with needle and thread, often wearing what she has made.

In the kitchen and the library

Rosa bakes to a standard most pastry counters would envy, with a record playing while the oven does its work. Liana reads French literature in translation and looks after her balcony plants as unhurriedly as she reads.

Settled tastes at the table

This band suits a dinner at the corner table particularly well, four hours at £1,300, because a companion who knows her own mind makes the ordering, the conversation and the walk afterwards feel effortless. Three hours at £1,050 suits a concert and a late supper.

Where the fourteen live

Home, for this band, is spread across the map. Patricia lives in Belgravia itself; Cindy and Michelle are in Chelsea; Danielle, Milena and Thea in South Kensington; Covent Garden is home to Tina and Karolina, Marylebone to Rosa and Liana; Laura, Nora and Vanessa across the park in Paddington; and Samanta in Mayfair. None of it moves the price, because a taxi within the first two fare zones is already counted in, so an evening in Victoria or Knightsbridge with a companion travelling from Marylebone is priced exactly like one with a companion who lives off Eaton Square.

The bands either side, and other sets

For more energy and more questions, look at early twenties; for the composure of the next decade, thirties and beyond. Within this band, Karolina, Michelle, Milena, Patricia, Samanta and Vanessa also appear among the statuesque plates. Every name in the band starts at £400 an hour; the rates page covers the rest, and a single line through booking will do.
