Oxford stabber Lavinia Woodward who dodged jail over after stabbing boyfriend loved S&M gear and bragged of orgies
TOO brainy for jail Oxford student Lavinia Woodward loved to dress in racy S&M-style outfits and was a regular on the kink scene, pals claim.
The medical student, 24, enjoyed passionate relationships with partners and once told a friend: “I’m into some very kinky stuff.”
Woodward posed nude for the LGBTQ society sitting on a male student’s lap with red marks clearly visible on her upper thigh and bottom.
She posted pictures of her in tight-fitting black BDSM-style PVC outfit with a sparkling necklace, looking alluringly at the camera.
One uni friend said she had a fetish for expensive designer underwear and would regularly wear bras from La Perla under just her fur coat.
She also allegedly bragged to friends about spending the “whole night” in the ‘orgy tent’ at a notorious Piers Gaveston society bash - where hundreds of Oxford revellers party.
A pal revealed: “She once told someone ‘I’m into some very kinky stuff’. She said she was into BDSM.
“She had a wild collection of underwear,” the pal added.
“She had a real fetish for it. She used to dress in La Perla, Gucci and Dior bras that could cost hundreds.
“I know sometimes she just wore underwear with her fur coat, which was her pride and joy."
The pal added: “Lavinia went to the notorious Piers Gaveston party once and spent the whole night in the orgy tent.”
The pal said: “She always had ‘top drawer’ cocaine - the best money could buy, that she kept in her top drawer. She always had some in her room.”
A court heard Lavinia had been having sex with Cambridge boffin Thomas Fairclough earlier in the evening, before she flipped in a cocaine-fuelled rage, later slashing him with a knife.
There is no suggestion Mr Fairclough had been taking drugs himself.
Friends say she was a regular at dress-up parties and the wild LGBTQ society events, including gay nights at Oxford clubs.
An old school friend from Italy said Lavinia “became all dark and gothic” after she started taking drugs at university and “posted naked pictures of herself on Facebook”.
Following her arrest chiefs at Christ Church, Oxford, were so worried about her impact on the college they emailed reminding students “counselling” was available.
A friend of Lavinia’s ex added: “Lots of people are really that scared of her.”
