“The wheel of fortune is my favorite one to play—it’s my masterpiece,” said a beaming Natalia Vodianova, the dazzling host of her second London Fashion Week fundraiser. Illuminated by the glow of the wheel, her custom red sequined Calvin Klein
minidress dazzled. With last year’s event raising more than 347,000
pounds for her Naked Heart Foundation, the stakes (and the glamour) were
high. By 10:30 p.m. the total was already at 600,000 pounds.
Old Billingsgate Market in London was transformed with carnival lights as guests including Natasha Poly, Charli XCX, Lily Donaldson, and Jamie Campbell Bower scampered around in black-tie trying their luck with Suzy Menkes donkey derby or hooking a duck (and winning a Repossi heart ring in the process—as Justin O’Shea did for his girlfriend, Veronika Heilbrunner). “London is such a fun city, and the idea of the fund fair is so universal for children, and we were all children once. So if we have fun tonight, we can bring more fun to children in need,” said Vodianova, before her son Lucas pulled her away to play miniature golf.
