Day 3 of London Fashion Week certainly brought out the big names in celebsville and fashion as Mulberry and Matthew Williamson were on the schedule.
Supermodels Kate Moss and Naomi Campbell were seen at Mulberry and Topshop Unique respectively, showing their support for the labels. Actress Sienna Miller was also to be seen at her friend Matthew Williamson’s show. An Erdem-clad Vogue US editor Anna Wintour had also jetted into town and was spotted frow (that’s fashion speak for front row) at Matthew Williamson, Nicole Farhi and the Topshop Unique show. The latter certainly shows the power Topshop holds on both sides of the Atlantic these days. Singer Kelis was also at Waterloo for the Unique show to see what Topshop has planned for spring/summer 2012
But where was Paloma Faith and her wonderful outfits??

The supermodel Naomi Campbell is set to be honoured at the Angel Ball in October for her charity work.
Naomi may be a bona-fide diva but she’s certainly got a soft side, as she’s been working tirelessly for various charities for a while now, hosting a Fashion For Relief fundraiser after the earthquakes in Japan and raising huge amounts of money for AIDs relief and Haiti. She’s actually raised $7million in total – wow.
Denise Rich, who is the founder of the charity which will honour Naomi in New York next month, said about the supermodel: “She really is amazing woman and she does a lot for charity. She has her own charity. She raised a lot of money this summer for Haiti and for AIDS relief.”
The model certainly does know to fundraise in style, with her latest Fashion For Relief party including performances from rapper queen Eve and Patti LaBelle, even encouraging Jane Fonda to take a turn showing her stuff on the catwalk. Who says fashion doesn’t care?
Congrats to you, Naomi, you completely deserve it.

Supermodel Naomi said that she found the new Cadbury's campaign "insulting and hurtful"
Naomi Campbell has reportedly designed a line of jeans for Fiorucci.
The British supermodel is set to show her debut collection for the Italian denim wear label at Milan Men’s Fashion Week – which is currently underway – although it has not been announced on event schedules.
While denim wear is thought to be an unusual choice for Naomi, 41, as she hardly ever wears jeans, she was spotted in denim at the recent Cannes Film Festival in May.
Fashion website Fashionista.com said: “It’s a denim line and we almost never see her in jeans… [a] photograph from Cannes this year is bit of an anomaly.”
However, on the rare occasions Naomi does decide to wear jeans, she usually relies on her close designer pal Victoria Beckham to get her out of a style rut.
She said: “Victoria is amazing, a real sister. When I’m stuck in a rut, she’s always at the other end of the phone to send a pair of jeans.
“They work wonders on the legs. I love her designs. I’m always in them. I’ve worked with Vivienne Westwood, Alexander McQueen and so many great designers. So I’m proud Victoria is up there too.”
Fiorucci enjoyed huge success in the 70s and 80s and is now owned by Italian fashion giant Ittierre after financial and legal issues in the 90s.
The shoes which Naomi Campbell famously fell over in have been put on display.
The supermodel was wearing the Super Elevated Gillie heels by Dame Vivienne Westwood when she spectacularly tumbled to the ground as she took part in a Paris catwalk show in 1993.
Now the nine-inch high mock-crocodile skin shoes are part of an exhibition at the Bowes Museum, County Durham, England, which shows off shoes from Vivienne’s range since 1973.
Ahead of the exhibition, Vivienne said: “Shoes must have very high heels and platforms to put women’s beauty on a pedestal.”
Joanna Hashagen, keeper of textiles at the Bowes Museum, said all the pieces of footwear, including the infamous ‘Super Elevated Gillie’ shoes, were “works of art in themselves”.
She said: “We all know about how fantastic her clothes are, but this is the first time anyone has really focused on her shoe collection.
“They are just staggering – and they are made from everything, anything you could think of.
“When you see them, you see they are sculptures, they are works of art in themselves.”
Visitors have until 10 July to catch the exhibition before it moves to Japan, New York and China.

Supermodel Naomi said that she found the new Cadbury's campaign "insulting and hurtful"
Everyone knows that Naomi Campbell is one supermodel who’s never shied away from a confrontation, but this has to be one of her most unusual fights yet: the Croydon beauty may be about to declare legal war on Cadbury’s, the chocolate manufacturers.
Naomi is said to be righteously angry and upset about a new poster campaign that was launched last week with the strapline: “Move over, Naomi, there’s a new diva in town.”
The supermodel spoke to the Daily Mail about her feelings on the campaign. ”I am shocked. It’s upsetting to be described as chocolate, not just for me but for all black women and black people…. I do not find any humour in this. It is insulting and hurtful.” Since making her feelings known to the media, it’s said that Naomi’s planning to fight the chocolate manufacturers in court.
The chocolate company seem pretty mortified and have already taken down the ad. In a statement made by the company a spokesperson said, “Cadbury takes its responsibility very seriously indeed and we would never produce any marketing activity we felt might cause offence to any section of society.”
Unfortunately, even a tadpole could work out the racist connotations of the ad, whether Cadbury’s had thought them through or not. I think I’m with Naomi on this one..

Many a supermodel has fallen over on the catwalk – Naomi Campbell and Agyness Deyn to name a few.
However we have to spare a thought for poor 17 year old Lindsey Wixson who fell over not once, not twice, but three times during her short walk at the Fashion for Relief catwalk in Cannes earlier on this week.
The model’s falling fate seems to be down to the hem of her huge ballgown, which knocked her off her feet and onto all fours at the show. Not to be put off the fall the model bravely got up and gave the audience a thumbs up before falling again, and then again.

Naomi Campbell is to show her support for Japan’s earthquake victims by hosting a Fashion for Relief event.
The supermodel – who has raised $7 million for charitable causes with similar events to date – will put on the style showcase during next month’s Cannes Film Festival, with all proceeds going towards helping those affected by last month’s devastating earthquake and tsunami rebuild their lives.
Assisted by Italian Vogue editor Franca Sozzani, Naomi will host both a fashion show and an art auction on May 16.
Earlier this month, Naomi spoke of her hopes to host an event for the survivors of the Japanese natural disaster with her Fashion for Relief charity.
She said: “We are going to continue. It’s not 100 per cent confirmed, but we are in talks right now. Hopefully we should know by the end of the week if we’re doing Fashion for Relief: Japan.
“But not in Japan, we’re hoping to try and do it in Cannes.”
The 40-year-old star organised a similar event in February 2010 to raise money for the survivors of last year’s devastating Haitian earthquake, with fellow supermodel Kate Moss, former Spice Girl Geri Halliwell and Girls Aloud singer Nicola Roberts all taking to the catwalk for Fashion for Relief.
Naomi Campbell is opening a shop in London.
The supermodel has joined forces with shopping centre Westfield for the pop-up store, which will open its doors between April 6 to 13 to sell designer items in aid of The Prince’s Trust charity.
Among the products up for grabs will be a Vivienne Westwood evening dress previously worn by the British beauty, and a Tom Ford suit donned by comedian David Walliams.
In addition, labels including Stella McCartney, Mulberry, Givenchy and Christopher Kane will donate pieces to the shop, while fashion set designer Michael Howells will be responsible for dressing the store windows.
Naomi will also be joined behind the till by a string of as-yet unnamed famous faces, with mystery guest DJs also promised to boost the shopping experience.
The Prince’s Trust benefits young people who need practical and financial backing in order to turn their lives around.
The supermodel’s previous altruistic efforts include her annual Fashion for Relief catwalk show, and a collection of t-shirts, which were sold to raise money for the charity.
