Brave breast cancer survivors have stormed the runway at New York Fashion Week in a groundbreaking show. 

The 16 models all wore lingerie and lounge-wear from AnaOno, which designs specifically for women who have had mastectomies, breast reconstruction or breast surgery following a cancer diagnosis. 

Women of all ages took part in the emotional runway show - the youngest of whom was just 18 when she was diagnosed - with many baring the visible after-effects of their battles with the disease. 

They strutted the runway in platform boots and lingerie, some proudly whipping off their bras and cover-ups to display breast reconstruction or double mastectomies to cheers from the supportive crowd.

Ericka Hart, who underwent a double mastectomy, was among the models walking the runway for AnaOno in New York yesterday

Ericka Hart, who underwent a double mastectomy in the wake of her own cancer diagnosis, was among the models striding down the runway in AnaOno founder Dana Donofree's line.

Hart, 31, who had breast reconstruction surgery in 2015 following her mastectomy, has previously spoken out about the fact there were virtually no examples of reconstruction scars on black women for her to look at ahead of the procedure.

Proceeds from the show will go to Cancerland, a not-for-profit foundation founded by Champagne Joy, who joined actress Mira Sorvino on the runway following the close of the show. 

All of the profits will benefit breast cancer patients.   

The stars of the show were a far cry from the identikit models more often seen striding the catwalks at New York Fashion Week
