The world of fashion collided in spectacular style on Tuesday night in London as supermodels new and old united to celebrate 100 years of British Vogue.

The new wave of catwalk queens including Lily Donaldson, Lara Stone and Karlie Kloss mingled with the likes of '80s runway divas Jerry Hall and Yasmin le Bon at one of the biggest nights in fashion so far this year.

The uber-fashionable event, hosted at the National Portrait Gallery, was to mark the launch of the Vogue 100: A Century of Style exhibition, a display featuring the finest works shot for the style bible since its launch in 1916.

Strike a pose: Supermodels united on Tuesday night in London as Lily Donaldson, Lara Stone and Karlie Kloss all stepped out at the super-stylish Vogue 100 exhibition launch at the National Portrait Gallery

Leading the way was newbie Donaldson, who flashed more than a hint of her ample assets as she arrived alongside the likes of one of the world's highest paid posers, Lara Stone.

Heading to the ultra fashionable event, the blonde beauty opted for an understated yet super stylish black gown, which featured an extremely low-cut neckline.

Straddling the sartorial line between risque raciness and red carpet glamour, the Burberry model showcased her incredible figure to the max in the fitted frock.

Featuring a severe sweetheart neckline, Lily's ample assets were firmly on display - with the lingerie model seemingly unperturbed by the perilous state of her modesty.

The statuesque beauty rounded her look off with a pair of understated heels.

Showcasing her fashion credentials, Lily opted for the age old adage of 'less is more', choosing to keep her look uncluttered.

Leader of the fashion pack? Arriving at the National Portrait Gallery, the 29-year-old Victoria's Secret beauty flashed more than a hint of her ample assets in a sensational black gown

Walk this way: The model subtly drew attention to her decolletage with a simple gold cross necklace, whilst she also sported matching gold earrings, a bracelet, and a handful of shimmering rings

Tower of strength: Lily showed off her statuesque figure as she posed alongside twin designers Dean Caten and Dan Caten

Power pals: Lily proved herself to be quite the socialite as she mingled with Karlie Kloss and Suki Waterhouse

With the week end here our thoughts turn to what we're going to wear when we hit the town.

If you've got a big night out planned then you can't go wrong with a little black dress as Karlie Kloss is demonstrating so beautifully. The model attended an event in London and looked slinky and sexy in this Christopher Kane cut out dress.

We love the flattering placement of the cutouts which are much more friendly than on the saddlebag/muffintop area. Off the shoulder also shows off the sexy collarbone and hides imperfect upper flabby arms.

So even if you're not model-thin like Karlie, this is a great dress for everyone because it is so accommodating. Head over to forward to pick up this exact one and then click on the bottom to finish off the look with her exact heels from Aquazzura. Add slick of scarlet lipstick and you're ready to paint the town red.

Using a smokey eye effect the stunning model highlighted her piercing eyes, whilst she plumped her lips up subtly with a slick of nude lipstick.

Opting for a minimal approach to make-up, the model let her striking looks shine though; only adding a hint of eyeliner, blusher and lipgloss to add accentuate her features.

Giving the new girls a run for their money were the likes of fashion icons Jerry Hall and Elizabeth Hurley.

Jerry - one of the leading models of the 1980s - proved she could still strike a pose with the best of them as she arrived a demure black dress with sheer sleeves.

Now for the Noughties, which were represented by the likes of couture darling Erin O'Connor and former plus-sized beauty Sophie Dahl.

The exhibition marks the centenary of the British arm of Vogue, which was exported to the UK by American publisher Condé Montrose Nast in 1916.

It is the first of its kind, celebrating the images which have graced the pages of the magazine over the last centry.

The works of Cecil Beaton, Irving Penn, David Bailey, Herb Ritts, Mario Testino and Corinne Day all appear in the display, which opens to the public from February 11.

The display will feature some of British Vogue's most iconic shots, from Princess Diana posing in a tiara for Testino, to 90's grunge-era Kate Moss and even a model standing among the rubble in war-torn London during the Blitz.

Other snaps include the Beckhams at the height of their '90s fame, a cocky young Jude Law, late great designer Alexander McQueen and even the future King of England, Price Charles, who was snapped posing with chickens on his country estate.

Mingling: Lottie was all too happy to rub shoulders with guests including Yana Max

Speaking about what makes Vogue so iconic, Shulman - who has edited since 1992 - said that the publication was 'very clear about the core values [of fashion] while being open to adaptation and innovation.'

Aimed as a guide for the rich and wealthy to spend their money, the magazine transcended its original boundaries of reporting the latest fashion trends to purchase to become a bench-mark for social events, culture and trends of the day.

The exhibition, as the title suggests, takes in 100 years of British Vogue. Each room in the exhibition tells the story of a decade through a spectrum of portraits. Featuring icons, models and social darlings from across the breadth of the magazine’s time in publication, Vogue 100 years shows British history in a completely different light.

100 years of British VOGUE - a timeline

As the exhibition launches to mark the centenary of the British arm of Vogue, MailOnline takes a look back at where it all began...

1916 - The first issue is published - after the franchise is exported to the UK by American publisher Condé Montrose Nast. Former fashion designer Elspeth Champcommunal was the first editor.

1922 - Champcommunal leaves with Dorothy Todd taking the reigns. Todd shifted the publication's focus from fashion to literature causing it to lose much of its audience.

1926 - British VOGUE takes off under the editorial direction of its third editor - Alison Settle.

1940-1960 - The magazine reverts back to its literary-loving ways under Audrey Withers who supported the reporting of issues regarding the Second World War.

1992-2016 Current editor-in-chief Alexandra Shulman bolsters the publication's success to more than a million readers thanks to her no-nonsense attitude - she famously commented, 'super-skinny models are no longer acceptable' in her quest to put a stop to designers sending size-zero models down the catwalk - and her experimental edge.

A hole new look: Donna Air, who started off her career as a model, arrived in a layered lattice overcoat, which she teamed with a shimmering satin black dress and oxblood patent boots

Late legend: Donna stood in front of one of the display's biggest works, a portrait of late designer Alexander McQueen, who committed suicide in 2010

Boys' club: Burberry creative director Christopher Bailey - who is one of fashion's most influential people - mingled with photographer to the stars Mario Testino, a favoured snapper of all Vogue editors
