Firmly established at the zenith of the glittering Monaco social calendar, the über-glamorous Amber Fashion Show flamboyantly channels its star-studded publicity into a great charitable cause, raising almost 1.5 million euros for the Elton John AIDS Foundation. Launched under the patronage of HSH Prince Albert II in 2006, with the support of the Formula 1 drivers, team principals and major fashion labels, the show has established itself as a “hot ticket” with celebrities and the world’s media alike.
2009 showcased the Elizabeth Hurley Beach and Jimmy Choo collections whilst F1 drivers once again took to the catwalk modelling Petra Ecclestone’s FORM menswear alongside their wives and girlfriends in Jean Fares and Rubina Anjum evening wear. The event was attended by over 600 guests and 200 media including 29 international TV crews, with global footage distribution.
