Naomi Campbell is celebrating the 25th anniversary of her career, with the help of Dolce & Gabbana at an exclusive event in New York for Fashion’s Night Out on Friday, September 10th (yes we had ours in London last night and thank you again Vogue UK!).
The evening at the Italian design duo’s NYC boutique will include two catwalk shows featuring Campbell and 14 other models who represent the iconic supermod’s different looks over the years. (Don’t expect any of her screaming and lobbing mobiles at her assistants or going a*se over t*t on Westwood’s catwalks though).
Stefano and Domenico have also created a Limited Edition collection of 14 T-shirts to celebrate the anniversary of one of the world’s most famous (and stroppy; see mobile phone throwing) clothes horses.
Each tee will feature an iconic image of Campbell taken by esteemed contemporary fashion photographers – and the mod will be at the boutique on the night to sign the tees between 6:30pm and 9:45pm.
The collection will also be on sale exclusively at Dolce & Gabbana boutiques in New York on September 10th, London (September 21st), Milan (September 26th), Paris (October 4th), Moscow (October 20th) and later in Beijing, Hong Kong and Shanghai.
The 25th Anniversary T-shirt will support the charity Fashion for Relief, founded by Campbell to raise money for places of need – fashion to the rescue!
