London Fashion Week is only three weeks away, and Naomi Campbell has announced that she will kick off the week by hosting her Fashion For Relief show. We’re used to supermodels opening for shows, but opening fashion week WITH her own show? That’s pretty good going.
The event will focus on raising awareness for Ebola, an issue she began acting for this past September, with her pop-up shop in Westfield London – read more about that here.
There’s likely to be a host of Campbell’s famous friends attending, and even some who will walk the catwalk wearing pieces from designers involved including Givenchy, Vivienne Westwood and Balmain, just to name a few.
‘The Fashion For Relief Show is an incredible event and this year we hope to raise more money than ever before. Raising awareness for Ebola and educating about its prevention is crucial to help prevent the spread of this deadly disease’ said Campbell.
The show will take place at Somerset House on 19 February at 7:15PM – for tickets go to Ticketmaster.com.
