Created by Kate Moss herself, in collaboration with
creative director Fabien Baron, Jess Hallett, and
Jefferson Hack, this book is a highly personal
retrospective of Kate Moss's career, tracing her
evolution from `new girl with potential` to one of the
most iconic models of all time. KATE: The Kate Moss Book
will be released with eight unique covers, shot by Mario
Testino, Corinne Day, Inez & Vinoodh, Craig McDean,
Mert & Marcus, David Sims, Mario Sorrenti, and
Juergen Teller and will be shipped to customers at
random. Kate Moss began modeling as a teenager and
achieved recognition when photographs of her shot by
Corinne Day appeared in British magazine `The Face.` She
made her so-called `waif` mark as a counterpoint in the
90s to then-dominant, Amazonian supermodels like Cindy
Crawford, Claudia Schiffer, and Linda Evangelista, and,
with countless international magazine covers and fashion
features, and campaigns for brands including Calvin
Klein, Chanel, Bulgari, Dolce & Gabbana, Gucci, and
Longchamp, has remained one of fashion's most enduring
and influential forces. Moss's magic has been captured
by the world's leading photographers, and this volume
spans the entirety of her unparalleled career, from
model to fashion designer, and muse to icon. Told
through images that Moss has personally selected, KATE
shows the influence of her collaborations with top
photographers and artists over the last two decades, and
clearly demonstrates why her career has had, and
continues to have, such incredible longevity.
Photography by Arthur Elgort, Corinne Day, Craig McDean,
David Sims, Hedi Slimane, Inez & Vinoodh, Juergen
Teller, Mario Sorrenti, Mario Testino, Mert &
Marcus, Nick Knight, Patrick Demarchelier, Peter
Lindbergh, Roxanne Lowit, Steven Klein, Terry Richardson
and others Including many 'never-before-seen' images
from her own archives and those of the illustrious
photographers with whom she has worked, KATE is a
must-have for anyone interested in one of the most
iconic models in the history of fashion media and modern
culture. |
