KATE ON A BEACH



Kate Moss photographed by Corinne Day in The Daisy Age, The Face 1990
I saw these photos in an exhibition in March 2006 at the Gimpel Fils Gallery, Davies Street. It was a Corinne Day exhibition called 15, focusing on her iconic photographs of Kate. It was simple, youthful and touching. corinneday.co.uk/exhibitions 'Gimpel Fils is pleased to announce an exhibition of Corinne Day’s iconic photographs of Kate Moss. Published in the Face in 1990, these images changed the course of fashion photography. Day’s pioneering contribution to photography was to forego the staged glamour of the fashion world, preferring to make images that remained true to the young, uninhibited teenage girl they depicted.' It ran from 27th February to 1st April 2006.

Publication: i-D September 2008 / Title: Utter strange sounds. Contort your body. Scream / Photographer: Richard Bush / Model: Aline Weber / Stylist: Sarah Richardson {Photo Source: fashionising.com} I love the Indian headdress. It reminds me of Kate Moss on the cover of The Face, 1990.

THE YOUNG ONES

i DO NOT remember being that stylish, stylish full stop infact, at that age.

LONDON


Alexa Chung and Daisy Lowe photographed in London. I know it's a cliche and EVERYBODY has that American Apparel skirt (cough.. I have two..), but I really love Alexa's look in this photo. It also makes me wish I was taller. I'm not even sure if I like what Daisy has put together, but I do admire her choice of bold colours and the daring length of that dress. {Photo Source: flickr/stylesightings}

Vogue's fashion editor Kate Phelan recalled that she "went by the rule that anything went as long as it had a theatrical twist. I was free to go mad. This was not the shoot for the Little Black Dress.." {telegraph.co.uk/fashion}

GIRLS IN REAL LIFE

I'm going to be honest. I didn't know a lot about this tragic social butterfly until I saw 2006's Factory Girl. A film (especially that film) cannot do a person's life justice, so I can't even imagine how heartbreaking her journey really was. Maybe we'll never actually know, but I think the few photos there are of her (compared to the amount there are of say Marilyn Monroe, Grace Kelly or Audrey Hepburn) are truly endearing and iconic x
