A-listers turned up in their droves on Tuesday night to celebrate the launch of the latest fashion exhibition at London's Victoria & Albert Museum with a private dinner.
The Glamour of Italian Fashion 1945-2014 is the first major exhibition on the evolution of Italian fashion and is set to be quite the spectacle.
Supermodel Naomi Campbell and actress Elizabeth Hurley turned heads when they attended the swanky bash both wearing striking black Roberto Cavalli gowns.

High spirits: Naomi looked lovely in the beaded creation
Wow thing: The feathers on Naomi's dress made quite the impact as she sashayed into the venue
Naomi's black beaded number stood out for it's array of red feathers which adorned the bottom section of her dress.
As she walked up the red carpet to head into the venue, the feathered sections gave way a little to show her fans a glimpse of her famous legs.
She was in good company with her sartorial style though, as Elizabeth Hurley dared to bare just a little in her cut-out long black gown which gave a glimpse of her slim tummy.

The halter-neck number had sequin embellishments surrounding the top section of the dress which she accessorised with a silver clutch bag and matching diamond earrings.
Giving photographers a cheeky glance over her shoulder, Hurley displayed her flawless back as the low-cut dress had revealing crossover straps.
Naomi and Elizabeth were not the only stars to show their support at the event.
