Fashion and music collided on the walls of the Milk Gallery in Manhattan’s Chelsea district this week, to benefit relief efforts in Haiti. The event, which consisted of a silent auction of donated works from world-renowned rock and fashion photographers, was the brainchild of model/actress Noot Seear, who co-starred with Kristin Stewart and Robert Pattinson in the second Twilight film, “New Moon.”
Seear, who is the president of the U.S. chapter of Rose Charities, says she was able to pull a few string to get the event, which was curated by John Gettings, off the ground. “I’ve been a model for 13 years so I had a lot of connections with the photographers,” she said. “Everyone gave absolutely their best work and it showed.”
In addition to talking about Rose Charities (”we’re not just going to Haiti and sending in doctors and leaving… we’re also teaching Haitians to become pediatricians and restarting the nurse’s unit”), Seear was also happy to talk about her “New Moon” experience. She said that she won’t be in the third film but will reappear in the fourth, and became good friends with Ashley Greene and Kellan Lutz.
