Is Julian Assange The New David Gandy?
The incarcerated Wikileaks founder is going to be in a fashion show…
By Tamara Roper
In the history of fashion there have been some fairly odd choices of runway model, though it looks like Ben Westwood has definitely just broken the record. Son of Dame Vivienne, Ben has announced his selection of worldwide renegade, Julian Assange, to walk the runway of his London Fashion Week show.
Taking place in September at the Ecuadorean Embassy where Wikileaks founder Assange is currently incarcerated, the fashion show will see six models join him, wearing clothes inspired by actor Clint Eastwood’s costume in his spaghetti western films.
Designer Ben says, “I’ve designed something for him along those lines and will be getting him to wear it. I’ve got another garment with a Julian Assange print.
“I want to highlight Julian Assange’s plight. What happened to him is totally unfair.”
The Westwoods have always been a controversial family, from Mummy Viv’s punk aesthetic in the 1970s to her son Joseph Corre becoming the CEO of Agent Provocateur.
In a further hilarious twist of events, George Clooney and his fiancée Amal Alamuddin, who has worked on behalf of Assange before, are reported to be invited. We can only imagine what the FROW will be like. *Frantically types ticket request email*
Always comes out of a little bit something bad
And I wasn't looking for someone new
Till you came down
Giving me the best that I've had
And now you're on my skin
Body to body
Working me out
Yeah you, you play to win
Rocking me steady
Round after round
Oh oh oh oh
I wish you were my first love
'Cause if you were first
Baby there would have been no second, third or fourth love
Woah oh oh oh
I wish you were my first love
'Cause if you were first
Baby there would have been no second, third or fourth love
Woah oh oh oh I
Mistakes I don't worry 'bout them no more
It ain't no thing
'Cause you got me up on Cloud 9
So good, knowing I could just keep it real
T-shirt and jeans
See you making me feel so fly
And now you're on my skin
Body to body
Working me out
Yeah you, you play to win
Rocking me steady
Round after round
Oh oh oh oh
I wish you were my first love
'Cause if you were first
Baby there would have been no second, third or fourth love
Woah oh oh oh
I wish you were my first love
'Cause if you were first
Baby there would have been no second, third or fourth love
Woah oh oh oh I
You make me wanna ride again
'Cause I, I wanna hear you say my name
'Cause I
You make me wanna ride again
'Cause I, I I I I
You make me wanna ride again
'Cause I, I wanna hear you say my name
'Cause I
You make me wanna ride again
'Cause I, I I I I
Woah, oh oh oh oh
I wish you were my first love
'Cause if you were first
Baby there would have been no second, third or fourth love
Oh oh oh oh
I wish you were my first love
