The world can’t get enough of controversy. The world can’t get enough of Kate Moss.
The French Vogue issued a new number with Kate on the cover shot by Inez and Vinoodh. The editorial is rather Brigitte Bardot-ish, in a raw nude-rock attitude. 70s air and mini-outfitted La Moss go for a photo shoot by the lake.
I’m not a fan of tobacco glamour, as I already said before and thus I didn’t posted the pictures where KM was photographed holding a cigarette.
To quote the editorialist “On the Road – About Fashion as a Road Movie.. The most STAR of the tops makes the choice of leather, cotton and denim, transforming perfectos and mini-shorts in basics made for living. (..)?
I see no road movie in these pictures. I see a woman down by the lake side, a Honda motorcycle, an impossibly dressed blonde over makeup-ed woman who just likes to wear vests and never close them, even if she’s wearing nothing underneath.
The cover says “Sexy like Kate Moss?. The only thing I see is an unconvincing woman looking more like being hunted. Just out of curiosity, if you know, why there’s no smiling in fashion editorials?

[...] has to turn out. My intentions here, after posting about Kate Moss photos by Inez and Vinoodh for French Vogue, were to understand why in GQ’s perspective, women can be attractive, look alive and healthy and [...]
I agree, she does look a bit haunting in these…and never buttons her vest. Not a very appealing look.
I can’t see what this has to do with fashion and why this is attractive for me, as a woman, in a fashionable way. Vogue is a womens magazine right? Isn’t this shoot really not meant to be for certain male magazines? I’ve name for this and I hardly dare to write it but ok, I do it anyway: the inflatable doll look…….
[...] up again. I was wrong. It seems it’s a wave of doll-ish pictorials (like one dear reader made the remark on the site) in all magazines. Fashion or [...]
I have to agree. I’m not very impressed by these.
Kate is a Scrawn, suitable for the fashion runway, I admit.
These pix (especially the cover) presents some thin tramp apparantly fogged out of her gourd. This is selling nothing but “um, duh?”.
Bad shoot. Very bad. (”Oh, I think Pete Doherty is leaking down my left leg…”)
Maybe fashion is no longer appealing by itself, it absolutely has to come with celebrity. However, Paris Vogue takes a bit further with every skinny smoking blonde passing its pages. Like the oh-so legendary french charm has something to do with that. Or like if you’re not like that, you’re not worth the fashion while.
