Sienna Miller, James Blunt and Ned Rocknroll have become Patrons of Fashion for the Brave, a fundraising fashion show and gala held at The Dorchester, September 20 (see Diary).

The event raises funds for the Household Cavalry Operational Casualties Fund (HCOCF) and The British Forces Foundation (BFF), supporting injured soldiers and their families, and servicemen and women on the frontline. Organised by fashion industry icons Hilary Alexander and Lesley Goring, the event is backed by the British Fashion Council.
