VOGUE HOLIDAY 2013-14
Kate Moss is 40 in 2014. To British Vogue’s
tradition, Kate appears as cover girl once again to celebrate the immense
fashion heritage with British well-known photographer Tim Walker.
According to VOGUE
2013 guest editor John Galliano’s words, that Kate is ‘as much muse as creator.
She understands the power of fashion, the language and magic it speaks, and how
to convey this into pictures’ (Galliano, 268). It perfectly shows that no
matter how British media tries to find the next Kate Moss’s heir apparent, it
predictably fails. Not only because of her unfocused eyes and highlight
cheekbones, her boyish body figure and various body languages on the shootings,
but her off-stage street fashion and party wear. Those show her unique taste on
fashion, or perhaps we should say, on style. Since fashion may fade away but
style stays, Miss Moss phenomenon will still last for ages.
Photographer TimWalker has his famous fairy-tale styles of fashion campaign, while VOGUE UK
Christmas issue ‘Made in Britain’, he adapts black-and-white, clean-cut and sleek,
without Baroque settings, pinky colours or enormous ball gown, he nails the characters. VOGUE UK December
issue usually provides astonishing fashion photos, shopping stories and
designers’ lives (as Isabel Marant);from Kate Moss to Stella Tennant, from Gareth
Pugh to Nick Knight, that’s how we call Britain Great.
