Her Madge's nipples

 

Madonna shocked the fashion FROW back in 1992 when she walked for Jean Paul Gaultier - boobs and all.

Of course you just need to go to one of her concerts nowadays to be in for a similar sort of treat.

The Fall of Naomi

 

Agyness Deyn, Kate Moss... they've all dropped like (fashionable) flies. But no matter how hard they try - or fall - everyone always remembers Naomi Campbell's iconic catwalk drop at Vivienne Westwood in Paris 1993. Still makes us larf.

Cheryl Cole has a go...

 

Cheryl walked for Naomi Campbell's Fashion For relief show in 2008 - alongside Cilla Black in a leotard (amazing).

Cheryl looked incredible. This is not the shocking part. The shocking part is, well, her BOOBS. Anyone else not realise how ample Cheryl's airbags were? Just us? Okay, moving on...

Serious protest calls for *serious face*

 

Seriously, serious faces please. Yes she's in the nuddy, yes he's loving it. No, the front row are not.

Because when this PETA protester hit the Lacroix catwalk in 2007 she went down in fashion history, and PETA history. Job done really.

KATE MOSS, SMOKING!?

 

The sight of Kate Moss smoking isn't exactly a shocker but on a catwalk? Inside? And on a catwalk, post-smoking ban? Golly gosh, Louis Vuitton and Ms Moss knew how to grab those Feb 2011 headlines...

IF IN DOUBT, GET YOUR NORKS OUT

 

Yup, budding designers have been known to release more than a few topless models (and naked men... steady yourselves ladies) onto the catwalk to bag attention and, err, chic points. Throw in a scary mask and you're laughing (slash screaming).

But is it chic, or London Fashion EEK?

Anna Wintour gets pied!

 

Again, it's no laughing matter. The high priestess of fashion (or Editor-in-Chief of US Vogue) was pied. In the face. At Paris Fashion Week in October 2005.

The work of animal right's activists, Anna did not seem best pleased.

Unfortunately we don't have photo proof, so you'll just have to chortle at the pic above of her being attacked by the elements instead.

Victoria Beckham, on the shock list? Really?

 

Yes, really. But mainly for her services to fashwan. The award-winning designer has somehow managed to go from WAG to faaaahb-ulous in just a matter of years (with some really hard work thrown in for good measure). Shocking? Well, yes, it is really.

Paris Hilton, remember her?

 

Hilton heiress Paris joined legions of celebrity catwalkers when she modelled for Julien Macdonald in 2006. Only, it did not go all that well for her...

While en route to the afterparty (darlink) fur protestors flour-bombed her and Julien Macdonald.

HELLO NAKED MAN (and lady in the distance)

 

Back to the man. The fact of the matter is, nudity still shocks. be it naked pregnant ladies, naked old ladies or naked men wearing hats, fashion week LOVES showing some skin.

Which, when you think about it, is odd when it's technically all about the clothes. And God only knows where the front row are meant to look. But you know, it works for the designers, so it much be chic. Ahem.
