Fashion Rocks: A Star Studded Affair

It’s a fashionable time of year, wherever you live. With the Italian and French Fashion Weeks having taken place last month, and Los Angeles’ Fashion Week currently wrapping up, the Brits are proving that they’re no slouches.

The Royal Alber Hall in London played host to the event last night. And the Swarovski Fashion Rocks charity event wasn’t lacking in star power.

Kate Moss showed up in an amazing 1920s-era dress complete with 60,000 Swarovski crystals. It’s worth an estimated £40,000 (US $80,000) and will reportedly be auctioned off on Ebay.

Moss told press, “When I was invited by Swarovski to create a dress with Topshop to wear tonight, this 1920s flapper-style immediately came to mind. It was like a dream to use such an amazing amount of Swarovski crystal. I’m honored to have the opportunity to raise funds for the Prince’s Trust, as it’s a great cause. Plus, I get to wear my own amazing couture dress, even if it’s just for the night.”

Other celebs in attendance were Gwyneth Paltrow, Uma Thuman, and Joss Stone.
