By JULIE MOULT
It's not often that a celebrity navigating the potential pitfalls of a red carpet is thankful for a strong gust of wind - not unless you are Marilyn Monroe that is.
But far from causing an embarrassing wardrobe malfunction, model Iman got a helping hand from the elements when the blustery weather showed off her stunning Valentino gown to its full glory.
However David Bowie's wife appeared completely unfazed as the full length, red dress blew upwards on Thursday night.

The 57 year-old was attending the amfAR Cinema Against Aids gala ball at the glitzy Plaza Hotel in New York.
Iman - full name Iman Mohamed Abdulmajid - was one of a host of A-listers to attend the annual fundraiser.
It was one of five annual balls around the world which have helped the charitable foundation raise more than $70 million since it was formed at the height of the AIDS crisis in 1985.
