From the little dress dresses, the ones with super thigh-high slits to the most dramatic, she’s worn them all. So the supermodel understands every assignment when it to dressing up.
The 51-year-old attended the Prince’s Trust Gala in New York on Thursday night, where she stole the show in a custom Valentino creation. The look, a ballgown featuring a Bardot neckline with a long-sleeve off-the-shoulder design and a voluminous full skirt completes with side pockets. Campbell finished the majestic number with a pair of Valentino Garavani matching ‘Tan-go platform pumps‘ and dangling green earrings.
