Here's What You Need To Know About Natalia Vodianova's Next Love Ball

Natalia Vodianova has revealed details about her next Love Ball, which will be an art-themed charity gala.

The Art of Giving will take place on 6 July during Paris Couture Week, at the Fondation Louis Vuitton in Paris, under the patronage of Bernard Arnault, the chairman and chief executive of LVMH.

Vodianova, the 'supernova', has promised music and dance performances, as well as an art auction hosted by the chairman of Sotheby's Europe, Oliver Barker. Works by Sterling Ruby, Takashi Murakami, Huang Yong Ping and Taryn Simon will go under the hammer.

All of the funds raised from the dinner and auction will go to the Naked Heart Foundation, the charity that Vodianova founded in 2004 in response to the siege that took place in Beslan (in her home country of Russia) when almost 400 hostages, many of them children, died.

The foundation now raises money to help children in Russia by building playgrounds, running educational programmes and aiding children living with disabilities and mental illness. Russia still has a culture of institutionalism, which the supermodel and philanthropist aims to put a stop to.

The charity hosted the Fabulous Fund Fair earlier this year, during which Vodianova auctioned kisses.
