 Kate Moss is always a story.

And what’s really unusual is she’s a story for everybody, from the tabloids to the broadsheets to the glossies to the Daily Mail.

Katherine “Kate” Ann Moss (born 16 January 1974) is an English model. She has appeared on over 300 magazine covers. She is known for her waifish figure, uncommonly short height for a fashion model, and appearances in many advertising campaigns. She is also notorious for her high-profile relationships and party lifestyle.

Kate Moss by Richard Young, 1997.

“You have to think to what extent that her image has been tarnished by these stories. The bigger story was how many companies dropped her and then took her back. To me this is proof that she is a great brand icon.”
