amfAR, the foundation for AIDS research, held their first ever charity event in Milan at La Premanente, co-hosted by Janet Jackson. The fashion elite took a break from the shows to support the effort to end the global AIDS epidemic:

Janet Jackson hit the carpet with Donatella Versace, both of course wearing Versace designs. Janet looked amazing in this blue wrap gown, and Donatella rocked a look straight off her S/S 2010 runway.

Burlesque queen, Dita Von Teese, rocked a pink and black satin rouched dress by Dolce & Gabbana. Typical retro look for Dita. She looks fab.

Model Chanel Iman rocked a beautiful black satin and sheer gown by Versace. Absolutely love this look for Chanel, and the hints of sheer seems to be really big for the upcoming season. One of the best dressed for the night.

Iconic Canadian model Linda Evangalista seemed to be unsettled about which fabric of choice to wear. Satin, velvet, fur, oh my! Dare I say it, she pulled this look off! Loving the vintage 40’s finger waves, and the bold red lipstick.

Kanye West & Amber Rose came matching in all black everything. I would have loved to see the two up the ante, because I know they definitely know how to bring it! And it looks like someone has a new piercing:

I am loving this “made for Barbie” shade of lipstick too! She rocks pink lips well, seems to be her fave shade.

DSquared2 designers (and brothers) Dean and Dan Caten came out in matching ensembles. Guess you’re never too old to stop dressing the same as your twin.

Model and socialite Poppy Delevigne rocked an all black Salvatore Ferragamo floor length dress, with plunging neckline lined with satin.

Dinner reception:

Dean and Dan were everywhere! Apparently, they were getting a DSquared2 leather jacket signed by everybody (Alek Wek, Kanye West, Janet Jackson, etc.) to be auctioned off at the live auction charity segment of the event.

Looks like a fabulous and good time was enjoyed by all!
