Kate Moss
Kate Moss first captured the world’s attention in the early 1990s, breaking the mold of the tall, curvaceous supermodel archetype with her petite frame and ethereal beauty. Her rise to fame coincided with the grunge era, and she became the face of “heroin chic,” a style that combined minimalist elegance with a rebellious edge. While her runway work made her a global name, it was her off-duty and party outfits that truly cemented her reputation as a fashion trailblazer.

- The Sheer Slip Dress: One of Kate’s most talked-about party looks remains the sheer metallic slip dress she wore in the 1990s. This outfit, which revealed as much as it concealed, epitomized the grunge-meets-glamour aesthetic of the decade and remains a reference point for designers today.
- The Gold Lame Dress: Another unforgettable moment was her appearance in a shimmering gold lamé dress, proving that Moss could bring old Hollywood elegance into a modern context. Paired with minimal accessories and her signature smoky eye makeup, the look was pure magic.
- Tailored Perfection: Kate has also mastered the art of the androgynous party outfit, often opting for tailored suits or tuxedos. Her take on masculine tailoring, paired with sky-high heels or bold jewelry, showcases her ability to make any style her own.
