In September 2013, Laura Whitmore proved she knows how to make an entrance — and how to throw a party.
The Irish television presenter took center stage as DJ at a Macmillan Cancer Support fundraiser at the Royal College of Art in London. True to form, Laura made a bold fashion statement for the evening, turning heads with her edgy yet elegant ensemble.
