London Fashion Week will end in a finale catwalk show with a difference organised by supermodel Naomi Campbell.

The supermodel has organised a star-studded fundraising show in aid of the victims of the UK floods.

Celebrities expected to take part in the event include Yasmin Le Bon, Lily Cole, Christian Slater, Claudia Schiffer, Rosario Dawson and Rio Ferdinand.

The London-born beauty said: "There will be lots of surprises. This is not going to be a normal fashion show."

Campbell, 37, used her status in the fashion world to persuade designers like Vivienne Westwood, Alexander McQueen, the Burberry label, Dior, and Dolce & Gabbana to contribute.

Front row seats at the show will cost £750 and will be held at London's Natural History Museum.

Organised in conjunction with The Rotary Club of Great Britain, all proceeds from the fashion show will go to its flood disaster appeal.

Campbell - who will also take to the runaway herself - said she came up with the idea after organising a similar fundraising event in the US in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina.
