Naomi Campbell Will Let You Come to Her Fashion Show

Naomi Campbell is staging a fashion show during New York Fashion Week to benefit Haiti. It’s going to be a spectacle — Charlotte Ronson had to bump her spot to let Naomi in — with Naomi and her entourage of famous people expected to descend on the Bryant Park Tents on February 12 at 7 p.m.

The show, which is also scheduled to walk in London, will feature looks from designers that she personally solicited, which will then be sold on Net-a-Porter.com starting next month. Celebrities are also expected to attend and model in the show. But here’s the thing: It’s not for fashion people. You can see it for yourself! Now that the Tents are basically open to anyone, from QVC to Jersey Shore crashers, why not open it to the public, too? At least this is for a great cause. Tickets for the show range from $100 to $150 and go on sale starting tomorrow for American Express cardholders through Ticketmaster.com. Proceeds, which are expected to reach $100,000, will be donated to Fashion for Relief.
