Models strut their stuff to help victims

The 37-year-old catwalk star has pulled in British designers like Vivienne Westwood and Alexander McQueen and the Burberry label to take part.

Fashion for Relief, will be held at the finale of London Fashion Week. Yasmin Le Bon, Jodie Kidd, Leah Wood and Rio Ferdinand are expected to help model the clothes.

The supermodel said: “I was not in the UK when the floods happened this July. But the images I saw on TV and read about in the newspaper were lasting and powerful and really touched me personally.”

The event at the Natural History Museum in London on September 20 is being organised in conjunction with the Rotary Club of Great Britain.

Flooding in South Yorkshire, Hull and Gloucestershire is estimated to have cost 3 billion.

British designer Westwood said: “As a fashion community we unite in moments of need.”
