Supermodel Kate Moss has been voted on to Vanity Fair magazine’s top list for the best dressed people in the world after getting more votes than any other woman for a place on its 67th annual International Best-Dressed List. She has completed her comeback from cocaine-fuelled notoriety and graces the cover of the forthcoming issue wearing nothing but a white fur hat, long white gloves, and over-the-knee leather boots. Vanity Fair’s fashion and style director, Michael Roberts, said she was “the most followed style icon of our time. She looks ravishing whether she’s going to the grocery store or walking the red carpet.”
Vabity Fair gave the model the seal of sartorial excellence also bestowed on such queens of style as Audrey Hepburn and Jacqueline Kennedy.
In a stunning shoot inspired by ’30s and ’40s movie siren Marlene Dietrich, Kate Moss proves that she still has star power and style. Moss, 32, lost contracts with a host of fashion houses after photos of her using coke were published last year. She entered a drug rehab clinic in Arizona last year after pictures of her allegedly using cocaine were published in a British tabloid. In June, prosecutors said there was insufficient evidence to charge Moss.
After the cocaine allegations, the 32-year-old catwalk queen was immediately dropped by a number of top fashion houses including the high street chain H&M, Roberto Cavalli and and the cosmetic brand Rimmel announced that it was reviewing her contract.
But now Kate is back in favour with the fashion industry and has signed new deals with, among others, Burberry, Calvin, Klein and Virgin Mobile - contracts that are set to earn her a staggering £10 million by the end of 2006.
The key to Moss’s style is individuality and insouciance. Michael Roberts, fashion and style director of Vanity Fair, said: “Kate has a natural talent for putting fresh looks together that are inspirational for other modern girls to follow. The number of items described on the auction website eBay as “very Kate Moss†indicates how many trends she has popularised: skinny jeans, waistcoats, gold chains, ballet pumps, quilted Chanel bags.
Making the Best-Dressed List for the first time was US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, for a fashion sense described as “immaculately groomed and formidably dignified – but with an audacious renegade streak“. The Best Dressed List, from which Hall of Fame candidates are chosen, includes Condoleezza Rice, David Beckham and Prince William. The former England captain’s wife, Victoria Beckham, is absent, however, and Prince Harry’s poor taste in fancy dress may have scuppered his chances. Other celebrities who do feature include Gwen Stefani, Sofia Coppola and Zac Goldsmith and his wife, Sheherazade.
Football star David Beckham made the men’s top 10 list with American actor George Clooney, rapper Kanye West, CNN anchor Anderson Cooper and Prince Ernst August of Hanover, Princess Caroline’s husband, among others.
The magazine also inducted Moss and Queen Rania of Jordan into its fashion hall of fame.
The September issue of Vanity Fair goes on sale on Friday.
