She is style. She is fashion. She is Kate Moss. For years she’s enthralled the world with her perfect pout and innocent eyes. And if her constant presence in glossy fashion magazines and on New York City billboards is any indication, the supermodel will be around for a long time to come.
Moss is much more than a beautiful face and body—she’s the face of a generation. And top brands like YSL, Dior, and Burberry are no doubt thrilled to have her as the face of their collections. Like a true chameleon she can convey girl-next-door cute or total glamour girl with just a switch of a facial expression. The first to truly epitomize “waif,” Moss was quickly added to the
most discerning photographers’ wish lists.
But it’s her innate sense of style that keeps fashion editors and the public captivated. Moss’s talent of mixing and matching trends to create looks that are both cutting-edge and classic is a feat unparalleled. Donning extravagant furs with skinny jeans and ankle boots, the effortlessly chic Moss has redefined street style. This year she’ll be designing her own line of clothing for the super-hip Top Shop in London.
In the spirit of Fashion Week and our insatiable appetite for all things stylish, we honor Miss Moss as our It Girl of February 2007.
