Kate
Moss, who has become one of the most recognized
and highest paid supermodels of the '90s, was born in Croydon,
Surrey, England,
on January 16, 1974.
Kate's entry into the fashion industry all started in 1988, when
she and her family were in JFK Airport on their way back from a vacation
in the Bahamas. The then 14-year-old Kate caught the eye of Sarah
Ducas of Storm Agency, who approached her. This chance encounter
was the launching pad of Kate's hugely successful career.
Kate Moss signed with three different modeling
agencies -- Women in New York, Marilyn in Milan, and Storm in London.
Her
first modeling job
was a topless appearance on the cover of the British magazine, The
Face.
After that, Kate was on her way to becoming
the latest "It" girl,
whose face and body would show up everywhere. The long list of magazine
covers she has graced include Allure and Harper's Bazaar in the U.S.;
Arena, Elle and The Face in the UK; as well as the American, British,
Australian, Italian, and Brazilian editions of Vogue.
If someone could possibly not recognize Kate
Moss from the slew
of magazine covers she has graced, they surely would from all the
advertisements she has appeared in. Kate practically became a staple
in Calvin Klein ads, such as those for fragrances like Obsession,
CK Be and CK One. The man behind these controversial ads, Calvin
Klein, can be credited with launching Kate Moss' career in the early
'90s. In addition to Calvin Klein ads, she has
also appeared in ads for Burberry, Cerruti 1881, Dolce & Gabbana,
Versace, L'Oreal, and Yves Saint Laurent.
Kate has also strutted her stuff on the catwalks for such big-name
designers as Calvin Klein, Chanel and Versace.
Moss also made her way onto the small and
big screens. She appeared as herself in several episodes of the
British comedy series French
and Saunders in 1996, as well as in movies like Isaac Mizrahi's Unzipped
(1995), Catwalk (1996), Beautopia (1998), and Original Copies (1999).
In 1999, she appeared as Maid Marian/Queen Marian in Blackadder Back & Forth.
