Seasons may change, winter to spring and all that, but there are a few constants we can always count on. I refer, of course, to Kate Moss, who is as much a part of the fashion week agenda as the chorus of editors talking about how tired and busy they are. To call Kate a fashion week favourite doesn’t do justice to her 30-plus year legacy of front row sightings and after-party cameos – not to mention the iconic runway appearances that could fill their own lengthy Wikipedia page.
Back in Paris for couture and menswear, Moss reminded everyone exactly why, without her, fashion week would feel incomplete. For the Saint Laurent menswear show on Tuesday night, the model opted for a lace-trimmed cami with a leather pencil skirt and a shaggy black coat. Of course, leather, lace and big statement coats are all staples of the super’s endlessly emulated wardrobe.
A staple of her ’90s wardrobe, Kate has always been associated with lingerie-adjacent camis and slip dresses, and hey, if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. Evidently a Francophile through and through (certainly if last season’s Emily In Paris-adjacent beret was anything to go by), Moss never tires of bringing a dose of London’s artfully undone glamour to Paris, and the banks of the Seine are all the better for it.
