Speaking to New York’s Page Six the model said she would like one show to take place during New York Fashion Week in February and another to follow in London. Both of course would be suitably star-studded thanks to the model’s famous list of friends.

Speaking about the disease Campbell, who has a home in Kenya and already works with three orphanages there, said she was “scared.”

The supermodel then added along with raising money she would also want the shows to help educate the public because, “people don’t have a clear idea about what Ebola is.”

Campbell also said that as a black woman, she feels a responsibility to fight the Ebola crisis, and she is also gravely concerned because she travels so much. “Ebola does not discriminate,” she added.

The iconic model is no stranger to using fashion to help raise money and awareness for causes close to her heart. Previously she organised the Fashion for Relief shows to help efforts in Haiti and Japan using celebrity friends such as Kate Moss, Agyness Deyn and Karolina Kurkova.

For the show in Cannes, Campbell managed to persuade Jane Fonda to take to the catwalk and she now says she has another “surprise grand dame” in mind for her upcoming shows.

The model also added she was interested in reaching out to Hunger Games and 'Boardwalk Empire' star Jeffrey Wright for a possible charitable partnership. Wright has been pioneering “ethical and sustainable” mining in Sierra Leone since 2011 and has just launched his own campaign to stop the spread of Ebola named #CrushEbolaNow.
