Last night a star-studded party for Roberto Cavalli’s 40th anniversary took place to kick off Paris Fashion Week. Celebrities flocked to the event to join in the celebrations for the legendary designer.

As can only be expected the only designer of choice for the evening was of course Roberto Cavalli. The show-stopping dress of the night went to Leona Lewis who wore an orange (yes I know but it kind of works) ruffle bottom ball-gown.

Taylor Swift arrived in a Cavalli little black dress. Rachel Bilson showed how chic leopard print can be in a strapless gown from the pre-fall collection. Bar Rafaeli chose a backless design from the archives (as seen on VB), whilst Aishwayra Rai wore a silver gown adapted from last years resort collection. Finally Heidi Klum wowed in a nude draped design.

Cheryl Cole made her first eagerly anticipated public appearance since falling ill with malaria and divorcing husband Ashley Cole last night in London. She attended the launch for her range of de Grisogono  jewellary ‘promise’ at Nobu.

And what of her attire? An Elie Saab dress from the spring collection teamed with Christian Louboutin heels. A highly glamorous appearance (plus a reunion with her much loved hair extension) but still just a little too wag for my liking.

Girls Aloud band-mate and good friend Kimberley Walsh was also in attendance (along with Nicola Roberts, Selena Gomez and Diana Vickers) in a little black dress by Herve Leger.

Her chosen look; a black high-necked woollen dress from Bottega Veneta teamed with colourful mesh Jimmy Choo sandals. A little boring maybe but a chic look nonetheless.

Taylor Swift was decked out head to toe in Cavalli, from her black lace-up leather boots to the satin mini skirt and georgette blouse, overall a slightly Piratesque ensemble but we’ll let it pass.
