Body confidence activist Iskra, who has also attended the Christian Siriano show and Daily Front Row's Fashion Media Awards this weekend, accessorised the head-turning look with a leopard-print handbag and pointed stilettos.

She wore her bright blonde hair in a high topknot and kept make-up to a minimum.

The Badgley Mischa show had a “sun, sea, and sand” theme and was inspired by Capri.

The presentation included beachy shift dresses with fringe accents, raffia bags, hyper-feminine minis and heavily embellished party dresses.

Designers Mark Badgley and James Mischka commented: “We wanted to create our dream of Capri and the surrounding towns — a part of southern Italy we have yet to visit.

“Pietro Fornasetti was also reportedly mesmerised by, and drew his engravings of, Capri before ever visiting; we have the same dream and are going for the first time next week.

“If he could dream and create his version of it, and then later realise it, we hope we can too.”

It’s been a busy week for Worcester-born Iskra who celebrated her 27th birthday on Monday.

The curvy model headed to Junior's Restaurant & Cheesecake near Times Square with pals, including US Olympian Ibtihaj Muhammad, fellow model Tia Provost, professional ballroom dancer Anna Demidova, and hair and make-up artist Leah London.

Her mates surprised her by wearing ‘Team Lawrence’ placards on their backs, which Iskra joked was “so epic”.

Meanwhile, Katie Holmes turned heads at the Ralph Lauren presentation today in suede brown jacket and metallic gold palazzo pants.

The 38-year-old actress posed for photographs at the show alongside Jessica Chastain, Diane Keaton, Ricky Lauren and Dylan Lauren.

Katie recently hit the headlines after going public with her boyfriend of five years, Jamie Foxx.

The pair had kept their relationship under wraps since 2012 and US reports claim it was so Katie could get a pay out from her ex Tom Cruise.

An insider claimed: “Katie signed a clause in her quickie divorce settlement that prevents her from embarrassing Tom in various ways, like talking about him or Scientology, or publicly dating another man for five years after the divorce.”

Bella Hadid took to the Ralph Lauren catwalk in a strapless red ballgown, which featured a leather bustier and flowing chiffon skirt.

The 20-year-old fashion model also stripped down to racy red underwear and suspenders today as she gave her Instagram followers a first look at the Love Magazine advent calendar.
