Kate Moss might be best known for her eternally chic take on bohemian style, but when she engages Hollywood glamour mode, nothing compares. Cast your mind back to the Saint Laurent spring-summer 2023 show, where a siren-red lipped Moss stalked onto the scene dragging her furry coat behind her and you’ll see what we mean. Her commitment to the “rich bitch” character was something else.
Another day, another major Saint Laurent moment for Moss, who attended the WSJ Magazine’s Innovator Awards in a whisper of a green gown with an ethereal hood that was bang on trend. Also proving Moss still very much has her finger on the pulse? Her visible underwear, but what’s a knicker flash for the woman who unintentionally invented the naked slip dress in the ’90s?
Kate Moss, who is enjoying her latest chapter as a beauty entrepreneur, recently told British that she could never have any fashion regrets because she has always dressed for herself. Her advice to the younger generation—especially those trying to find a way into the risqué-style scene? “Never wear a pasty! They are so prudish nowadays.” For Moss, wearing a “naked” dress has almost nothing to do with the design and everything to do with attitude. From ’93 to now, she channels the same effortlessness that lets you know she’s got a look down. There’s a strength in that.
Fellow Saint Laurent muse Amber Valletta, who wore a similarly draped warrior-goddess design, also signaled that Grace Jones hoods are back on the agenda. But while the likes of Katie Holmes, Michaela Coel, and Paloma Elsesser have all tried the bold take on the sexy trend, there’s no one quite like Kate Moss. To borrow the words of another haute hood champion, we just can’t get her out of our heads.
