Leona is auctioning the Roberto Cavalli dress, she wore at the Brit Awards this year, to raise money for Sport Relief.

Leona’s dress will be auctioned off on eBay and all the money will go directly to Sport Relief.

The dress, which was specially made for Leona, was designed and made over two months, with Roberto and Leona discussing ideas about how to make the perfect dress for the occasion.

The Cavalli team worked for nearly 50 hours non-stop to make and embroider the dress from over 55 metres of materials including taffetas and tulle, the bodice – hand encrusted with thousands of Swarovski crystals.

Roberto Cavalli said; “It’s been a great pleasure, for me to work with Leona Lewis right from the start. She has an incredible voice, beautiful eyes, and a fresh and positive attitude. Her stellar, instant success is the proof that real talent still counts. Leona is becoming a role model, her fame is all about strong will and hard work.

“I’m happy that a dress I have created for her for an important occasion, is now being auctioned for a charity. It’s a sign of her great generosity and I’m proud that the name Roberto Cavalli is linked to it.”

   Leona That dress was amazing some people think that fame is such a fickle thing but what there don’t relize is that there is 1 million other people who would love to be there shoes but I think that you do relize that and giving this dress away has gave someone a gigantic smile on there face and you have only been in the spotlight for about 4 months but you a doing a great thing for chariety already
