Style icon, one of Vogue’s most prolific cover stars, Queen of Cool – Kate Moss has been one of the world’s most ubiquitous supermodels ever since she was famously scouted at New York’s JKF Airport at the age of 14.
She was the woman responsible for the skinny jeans that dominated young women’s wardrobes in the noughties, for the queues outside London’s “Big Topshop” (RIP) thanks to her coveted collaboration with the high street chain, and for single-handedly catapulting bare legs and muddy wellies back into the upper echelons of festival fashion.
Now, as Kate Moss celebrates her 50th birthday on 16 January, what better way to mark the cultural impact of one of the most photographed women in the world than with a look-back at her life in pictures.
