All Of Kate Moss’s Most Iconic ’90s Fashion Moments
When reminiscing about pop culture from the ’90s, do iconic musicians such as Britney Spears, Backstreet Boys and Missy Elliott come to mind? Or perhaps you recall influential coming-of-age films like Clueless, The Craft, and Romy and Michele’s High School Reunion? In the realm of fashion, no face embodies the entire decade quite like that of the British supermodel, Kate Moss. Beyond her stardom on runways and high-fashion campaigns, Moss stood out as one of the OG street style stars.
Kate’s unique androgynous beauty, paired with her innate style, embodied the spirit of ’90s authenticity and rebellion. For evening occasions, she often opted for effortlessly glamorous slip dresses, some provocatively sheer – including an unforgettable transparent Jean Louis piece that still influences stylist moodboards. During the day, she championed the classic supermodel off-duty look, featuring a simple white T-shirt, high-waisted jeans and a leather jacket. She also has a fondness for animal print, whether it’s in the form of accessories or oversized trench coats. “I know instantly what I love,” the model previously told Vogue of her instantly-recognisable style.
To mark her 50th birthday, revisit Kate’s most arresting ’90s looks that continue to resonate with fashion enthusiasts today.
