While most big name celebrities are queuing up in LA for the Oscars, there were still a few notable faces missing from the lineup. But what event is worthy of missing the biggest global celebrity event of the year? Burberry’s Fall 2015 show at London Fashion Week, of course!

Some of the loyal, fashion-forward stars to boycott this year’s Oscars ceremony for the Burberry runway show included British modeling royalties Naomi Campbell, Cara Delevingne, Jourdan Dunn, Kate Moss and Lily Donaldson, all of whom have starred in various Burberry campaigns. In fact last year the British label created a series of campaigns shot by Mario Testino that perfectly paired together modeling icons Kate Moss and Cara Delevingne, and Naomi Campbell and Jourdan Dunn. If you haven’t read about that yet you can do so here.

The coveted front row attracted more than just these modeling beauties, however, with the likes of Mario Testino (of course), Sam Smith, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Clémence Poésy, Immy Waterhouse, Ronan Keating and Paloma Faith.

It might not be the Oscars, but the turn out was pretty good considering it clashed with Hollywood’s biggest annual event. To get a glimpse of the show watch the video here.
