Naomi Campbell, Burberry Host Dinner Honoring Artist Ed Atkins
A star-studded party was thrown on Thursday night at Lafayette in NoHo to celebrate artist Ed Atkins' feature in the annual Frieze Art Fair in New York. The honorary event was hosted by Burberry, British supermodel Naomi Campbell, director of the New Museum Lisa Phillips and W Magazine editor-in-chief Stefano Tonchi.
Over 120 guests attended the event, according to a press release. Attendees included Lee Daniels, Joel McHale, Michael Kelly, Rupert Friend, Ana de la Reguera, Adam Schulman, Catherine McNeil, Amanda Murphy, Bethann Hardison, Anh Duong, Misha Nonoo and more.
This is the fourth year Burberry has parterned with W Magazine in celebration of Frieze Art Fair artists.
Campbell, Jourdan Dunn, George Barnett and George Le Page are the current faces of Burberry's spring 2015 ad campaign.
"Burberry is such an iconic brand and I feel very proud to be a part of their campaign and their team," Dunn told British Vogue. "This campaign is even more special for me because I was shot with Naomi Campbell for the first time — someone who I admire and respect within the fashion industry."
Mario Testino photographed the models, and Burberry chief creative and chief executive officer Christopher Bailey acted as creative director of the shoot.
"Naomi and Jourdan — two great British icons, two strong, beautiful women and the two perfect faces for our new campaign," Bailey told British Vogue. "It is, as always, a real privilege to work with them."
This is Campbell's first campaign for Burberry since 2001, when she appeared alongside Kate Moss. Dunn has been in four campaigns for the label.
"I admire what Christopher and the entire Burberry family are doing so it's great to be back working with the brand again," Campbell told British Vogue about Burberry.
