Wikileaks founder Julian Assange is planning to take part in London Fashion Week as a model <\/p>\n

Julian Assange is still cocking a snook at the establishment. The Australian founder of WikiLeaks, who has cost the British taxpayer 6million in police bills since seeking asylum in the Ecuadorean Embassy two years ago, continues to receive celebrity visitors such as Lady Gaga and hold press conferences via video link. <\/p>\n

But in his most brazen move yet, I hear he is planning to take part in London Fashion Week as a model. <\/p>\n

Assange, wanted for extradition to Sweden on sex assault charges, will not even have to risk arrest by leaving his bolt-hole, as the catwalk is coming to him. <\/p>\n

Assange, 42, will be joined at the embassy opposite Harrods by six models to show off outfits designed by Dame Vivienne Westwoods son, Ben. <\/p>\n

The clothes have been inspired by actor Clint Eastwoods costume in his spaghetti western films, and the show will be accompanied by music from The Good, The Bad And The Ugly. <\/p>\n

Hollywood actor George Clooney and his lawyer fiancee, Amal Alamuddin who has acted as part of Assanges defence team have been invited to attend. <\/p>\n
