Abbey, 28, a close friend of the Welsh fashion designer, opted for a rather revealing ensemble as she took her place at the show, showing off plenty of skin in a plunging black and gold semi-sheer gown.
But the Strictly Come Dancing star's daring decision meant she suffered an accidental wardrobe malfunction, and suffered a nip-slip as the unforgiving fabric of the gown came away from her chest. 
    With the flimsy fabric of the Julien Macdonald gown barely preserving her modesty, the Liverpudlian model's sexy ensemble featured brave sheer panels soaring up the thigh and across her torso. 
    Putting on a confident display as she arrived at the historic London building, the blonde WAG teamed her racy dress with a pair of wine-coloured patent stiletto heels to add height to her already statuesque frame.

    Abbey, the wife of Stoke City striker Peter Crouch, accentuated her plump pout with a slick of lipgloss and lined her piercing eyes with dark kohl, while wearing her blonde locks swept to the side. 
    Meanwhile, Millie, 24, ensured she dressed to impress for the London Fashion Week event, showcasing her willowy figure in a black embellished midi-gown. 
    The netted number was certainly a daring choice with just panels of sequin-detail flowers preserving the reality star's modesty as she smouldered into the camera.

    Opting for black stiletto heels, the former Made In Chelsea star - who is married to rapper Professor Green - completed her look with low-key make-up and her signature winged eyeliner, while wearing her glossy brunette locks teased into a mane of tumbling curls. 
    While Abbey and Millie certainly did their utmost to steal the show, the received some stiff competition from singer Eliza Doolittle, who put on an equally daring sartorial display. 
    Also opting for a semi-sheer floor-length gown, Eliza's pannelled dress proved to be a particularly brave choice when she turned to the side to work her magic in front of the lens.

    FROM THE CATWALK: JULIAN MACDONALD AUTUMN/WINTER 2014

    The star wattage of the celebrity front row threatened to outshine the blinging gowns at Saturday night's Julien Macdonald's show.
    But as the deafening music started the Welsh design diva made sure all eyes were on his dazzling creations inside the imposing walls of the Royal Court of Justice.
    The heavy bass on the stereo as the show opened was a prelude to the heavy metal all over the catwalk.
    A dramatic display of evening dresses began with a collection of gold, silver and pewter gowns featuring beaded, blinging mosaics and a LOT of mesh, ergo flesh.
    To follow there were more disco-ready dresses (the Julien Macdonald woman doesn’t wear trousers) – inspired by fabulous architecture and stained windows according to the designer – in ruby red, emerald green and electric blue.
    Flirty feathers, crochet detail and even a bit of suede made it into the show here and there but it was the floor-sweepers that had the crowd hooked with delicate peacock and oriental embellishment showing off Macdonald's mastery of detail.
    Before the show Macdonald addressed the willowy models, whose hair was slicked back with gel and faces were covered in shine: 'I picked you because you're beautiful on the inside and on the outside. Be strong, be empowered and have a f***ing amazing time!'
