Past & Present, March 1994 / Johnny Depp and Kate Moss I do far too many Kate Moss posts. So much so that Alice in Wardrobe Wonderland might as well be a blog dedicated to La Moss, but surely you understand how addictive she and the photographs taken of her over the years are?? This photograph is beautiful, sooo cute and also a little heartbreaking. Their eyes stop you in your tracks. Expect no changes my friends, there are plenty more Moss treasures to come... x {Photo Source: katemossonline}

(above date unknown, although I'm guessing around 2001 as that's when La Moss had her pixie-cut??) I've already posted it, but check out Style.com's interview with Marc and Kate at the 2009 Met Gala here. {Photo Source: katemossonline}

Please help! I just can't get my head around this: do I like Moss' shiny look or not? Do I like the Marc Jacobs dress? The Stephen Jones turban? The unknown designer shoes? NO, YES and YES. She's been getting a lot of criticism for her choice, but I rather like the turban (I just saw the Stephen Jones exhibition at The V&A), and the shoes are obviously yum, but all together, and with THAT Victoria Beckham style dress?? Not happy... Check out Style.com's video coverage of the Gala featuring Kate and Marc (The Moss speaks!!) {Photo Source: katemossonline.net}
Moss will always be wonderful of course, she is the world's greatest style icon after all, but I can't help but miss the above times. Her hair, her radiant skin, her vintage, feminine, yet rebellious choices. In the book Kate Moss: Style, Angela Buttolph writes about the evolution of Kate's look, and the impact its had on the fashion world. She also writes about the history and story of each of Moss' famous outfits, so I recommend you grab a copy ASAP! I hate to mention it, but the 2 years leading up to her cocaine scandal are when she wore some of the classics

These are 4 of the postcards I picked up when I went to see the Face of Fashion exhibition at The National Portrait Gallery in April 2007. The exhibition focused on the portraits of five photographers from Europe and America: Mert Alas & Marcus Piggot, Corinne Day, Steven Klein, Paolo Roversi and Mario Sorrenti. I just had a look through the book I bought that was published to coincide with the exhibition, and it really was incredible. Kate Moss and Corinne Day are a monumental part of fashion history. The exhibition ran from 15th February - 28th May 2007.
Kate Moss photographed by Juergen Teller, 1998. Only Kate could still look this stunning with no make-up and lighting like this. She reminds me of Kate Winslet's character Clementine in Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind♥ ♫ ★ ♪ {Photo Source: katemossonline.net}
Kate Moss photographed by Corinne Day in The Daisy Age, The Face 1990 I saw these photos in an exhibition in March 2006 at the Gimpel Fils Gallery, Davies Street. It was a Corinne Day exhibition called 15, focusing on her iconic photographs of Kate. It was simple, youthful and touching. corinneday.co.uk/exhibitions 'Gimpel Fils is pleased to announce an exhibition of Corinne Day’s iconic photographs of Kate Moss. Published in the Face in 1990, these images changed the course of fashion photography. Day’s pioneering contribution to photography was to forego the staged glamour of the fashion world, preferring to make images that remained true to the young, uninhibited teenage girl they depicted.' It ran from 27th February to 1st April 2006. {Photo Source: Fashionising.com}
