Naomi Campbell Stuns in White Gown at V&A Summer Party Honoring Her Fashion Exhibition
The iconic British supermodel Naomi Campbell commanded the red carpet last night as she arrived at the V&A Summer Party in a show-stopping white gown. The event celebrated the launch of “NAOMI: In Fashion,” the first exhibition solely focused on a leading model’s fashion career at the prestigious Victoria and Albert Museum.
Exuding timeless glamour, the 54-year-old stunner made jaws drop in a custom white BOSS gown featuring a daring plunging cowl neckline and wrap-around skirt with a sultry thigh-high slit. Letting the breathtaking design take center stage, Campbell went braless underneath the expertly draped crepe fabric that clung to her famous curves.
The fashion chameleon accessorized the ethereal look with on-trend white cat-eye sunglasses, a statement snake-shaped diamond choker necklace, and stacks of dazzling bracelets, rings, and peep-toe shoes. Her glam squad styled her raven tresses in tousled waves, while a bronzed glow and nude lip completed her red-carpet radiance.
As the evening’s guest of honor, all eyes were on Campbell as she commanded attention at the glamorous soiree. The London-born icon has paved the way for models of color and transformed the fashion industry over her pioneering 40-year career.
The highly-anticipated “NAOMI: In Fashion” retrospective celebrates Campbell’s boundary-breaking work through a curation of her most iconic looks combined with powerful imagery. Narrated by the trailblazer herself, the exhibition spotlights her voice and first-hand experiences at the forefront.
Among the jaw-dropping ensembles on display are the show-stopping beaded Adiyoke dress that she donned in a groundbreaking 1988 Noxzema ad and the sheer Alaïa number she rocked at the 2012 CFDA Fashion Awards. Visitors can expect an intimate glimpse into Campbell’s fashion revolution through both glamorous and personal garments spanning her illustrious runway reign.
Also spotted at the gala was celebrity stylist Law Roache, who paid sartorial tribute to the guest of honor in a cream suit and T-shirt emblazoned with Campbell’s iconic visage. The trendsetting duo delighted fans by posing together on the red carpet.
With this landmark exhibition, the V&A Museum honors Campbell’s enduring impact as a pioneer and muse who has defied boundaries and reshaped luxury fashion’s beauty ideals through her confidence and individuality. As she continues to blaze trails in the industry, this retrospective solidifies her status as one of the most important models of all time.
