Marie Claire Fashion News: Kelly Knox

Britain's Missing Top Model winner Kelly Knox kicked off an auction of celebrity shoes today, to help raise money for landmine victims.

The model found fame this year, after being picked by a panel of judges, including marie claire editor Marie O'Riordan, as the winner of the BBC reality TV show.

Today she stepped out to launch the auction, which has seen 50 celebs donate their shoes, all in aid of the Mines Advisory Group (MAG), which raises funds for landmine victims.

MAG chief executive Lou McGrath commented, 'We are extremely honoured to have Kelly launch our show auction this year.

'Despite being born without a left forearm, Kelly has proven disability is not a deterrent for success, she should be an inspiration to the many thousands of people who have been cruelly maimed by the thousands of landmines still threatening lives and communities worldwide.'

Kelly posed today in East London with this outlandish pair of boots, which were custom-made by Prada for Spice Girl Geri Halliwell, while further donations came courtesy of Stella McCartney, Tony Blair and Russell Brand, amongst many others.

The auction kicks off today on eBay.
