description: Kate Moss is the girl from Croydon now known all over the world by her first name. She is the latest to join the ranks of the top six supermodels, alongside Christy, Naomi, Helena and Cindy. Her look has inspired the top photographers - Stephen Meisel, Bruce Weber, Herb Ritts, Helmut Newton and Richard Avedon - top fashion editors and fashion designers. Her big break came when Calvin Klein contracted her exclusively to his multi-million dollar advertising campaigns, and she was heralded as his quintessential "new look". Then came the controversial images of Kate topless, naked and as a young sex symbol. In this book, which celebrates her 21st birthday, Kate gives her own views on the outrage and censorship of her work. She makes a personal selection of 100 photographs which demonstrate the wide range of her relationship with the camera, far beyond the waifdom for which she is famous. In her commentary she reveals the way models and photographers work to achieve the images that influence us all, and how to keep successful - and sane - in the frenetic world of fashion.
