- Naomi Campbell and Anna Wintour clashed at Harlem's Fashion Row Style Awards on September 3.
- The Vogue editor-in-chief criticized Campbell's punctuality, but Campbell arrived as specified by the event producers, TMZ reported.
- Wintour, 74, left early for the US Open, missing Campbell's Fashion Icon Award acceptance.
- Samira Nasr, Harper's Bazaar editor-in-chief, presented the award to Campbell in Wintour's absence.
- In her speech, Campbell, 54, addressed Wintour’s criticism and expressed preference for Nasr.
- "I want to say this. Everything is meant to work out the way it's going to work out," Campbell told the crowd. "It wasn't my choice to have the other lady. I would much rather have this," Campbell said while gesturing to Nasr.
- Yet Campbell thanked Wintour for helping start her career in 1987 despite the onstage tension.
