Naomi Campbell's Fashion For Haiti Is Open To Public!

Naomi Campbell continues her charity efforts through her fashion expertise. She now sets the stage for a series of fashion shows to benefit the victims of Haitian earthquake. Unlike typical runway shows, the event will be open to the public.


For the coming New York Fashion Week, Naomi Campbell will be participating with an entourage of famous celebrities and fashion designers at the Bryant Park Tents on February 12 at 7 p.m.

The show will feature looks that the supermodel has personally solicited from fashion designers to be worn by celebrities at the runway event. The dresses will then be auctioned to raise more funds on Net-a-Porter.com starting next month.

Not only will the upcoming fashion show in New York (and another one which will be staged in London) raise funds for Haitians, the event will also provide rare opportunity for the public to see the Bryant Park tents in person. Naomi Campbell adds:

"It's not your typical runway show. Having the public be in the audience is much more fun. They are the ones who are not usually allowed in the shows."

Naomi Campbell has been active with charity fashion shows since 2005 under the name Fashion for Relief. Her efforts have helped raise funds through auctions benefiting tragedies like Hurricane Katrina and the Mumbai terrorist attacks.

"It's the world that I am in. Fashion is what I know and what I have loved for 25 years. It's great that you are seeing actors coming together and singers coming together, but this is our way of coming together and giving a contribution."


For those who are interested to attend, tickets can be bought for $100 or $150 through Ticketmaster.com and will go on sale first to American Express cardholders today, February 5. The ticket sales alone are expected to raise $100,000 for the charities connected to Fashion for Relief.
