Accessorising flawlessly, Shayk coordinated the piece with a matching coral clutch, pointed court shoes and a sweep of coral lipstick. Allowing the colour to do all the talking, she pulled her hair back into a tight up-do, emphasising the star’s impressive bone structure.
The stunning models all followed a common theme as they dressed to impress at the glamorous bash. Paris Fashion Week has got off to a very glamorous start today, as supermodels from across the globe came together for the Vogue party.
And of course, it meant a great deal of revealing outfits and near wardrobe malfunctions. Irina Shayk , Bar Refaeli and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley lead a host of famous faces in the city of love today, and they didn’t disappoint.
Stunning as the lady in red of the group was Irina, who showed off every inch of her tanned legs in a tiny mini dress. The star wore her hair tied back in a simply ponytail and carried a matching bag for a bright entrance.
Joining her was Rosie in a very high thigh-split gown. The loose black dress pinched in at the waist, and left her entire leg out as one side fell to floor-length behind her.
The star showed off a shorter blonde do and added strappy elegant heels as she posed for cameras outside.
This was just asking for a slip-up. Following her colleagues close behind meanwhile was Bar, who opted for a split navy number. Mirroring Rosie’s dress, the stunner opted for a lace finish and wore almost identical shoes.
Bar wore her longer hair loose and wore a choker round her neck, as she posed alongside the dazzling lot outside.
