IT girl Tara Palmer-Tomkinson arrived at a fashion show in style, flying in by helicopter to kick off a charity auction.
Tara was a special guest at the show organised by Seaford College, near Petworth, which raised more than £8,000 for the NSPCC and Macmillan Nurses.
The TV celebrity started the bidding for a lemon teardrop pendant, donated by jeweller Boodle and Dunthorne, which raised £975.
A Silverstone Formula 1 experience for four brought in a further £820.
Tara helped out because she is friends with college student Jade Adams who organised the event.
The show included a wide range of clothes for all ages, donated by boutiques in Chichester, Midhurst and West Wittering, as well as from national chains.
Themes for the evening included ghetto fab, nautical, sport and surfing as well as the popular bridal wear section.
More than 400 guests enjoyed champagne, canaps and strawberries on the school terrace before the show.
