Lola Young stepped out at Lily Allen’s Christmas party alongside Olivia Rodrigo, three months after she collapsed onstage and announced a hiatus from performing.
Young, 24, wore an all-leather black outfit to the party on Friday, Dec. 19, complete with a plunging neckline halter top, micro shorts and tall leather boots. She completed the look with chunky silver chain-link jewelry. The sighting is the British singer-songwriter’s first public appearance in months, following her collapse on stage while performing at the All Things Go music festival in New York City on Sept. 27.
Three days later, the Grammy-nominated singer told fans she was taking a break from performing.
“I’m going away for a while. It pains me to say I have to cancel everything for the foreseeable future,” Young wrote in a Sept. 30 Instagram post. “Thank you for all the love and support.”
Young canceled a full line-up of tour dates scheduled through June, including a U.K. tour that was set to begin on Oct. 6 for 10 dates across 13 days. She was then set to play more than 20 shows across North America through December.

Young wrote that she was so “so sorry to let anyone down” who had purchased a ticket to see her perform, and that “it hurts me more than you know.” She added that fans will “obviously” be entitled to a full refund.
“I really hope you’ll give me a second chance once I’ve had some time to work on myself and come back stronger,” she wrote. “Love you all, Lola x.”

The “Not Like That Anymore” singer was spotted alongside Rodrigo, 22, at the holiday party. The “vampire” singer wore a vintage inspired black lace mini dress over a cream-colored slip, completing the look with black Mary Janes.

Meanwhile, the “West End Girl” musician, 40, donned a red-and-white Mrs. Claus-inspired lingerie look, paired with fuzzy white platform heels.
