Toronto Fashion Jobs – Happy Birthday Kate

Kate Moss turned 38 yesterday (January 16th), and if the Pirelli calendar is any indication, she’s still got it. The top-earning supermodel is responsible for starting several enduring fashion trends throughout her career thanks to her effortless and iconic style. Here are three looks Moss perfected and how to emulate them.

The waif. Bursting onto the scene in the 90s as the anti-Cindy Crawford, Moss’s “heroin chic” appearance and ubiquitous Calvin Klein campaign made clean lines cool for showing off a more androgynous physique.

2. Vintage Cotton Tank, $29.50, available at J.Crew 

3. Calvin Klein Underwear Cotton Bikini Panty, $18, available at The Bay.

4. Stella McCartney Iris Tailored Wool-Twill Blazer, $1,295, available at Net-a-Porter.

Boho chic. Along with Sienna miller and the Olsen twins, Moss popularized the seventies-inspired trend that was a little bit glam and a little bit bohemian, with floral prints, blousy silhouettes, and a seventies edge. Her eponymous TopShop line made it easy to emulate.

3. Deen & Ozzy Felt Floppy Hat, $34, available at Urban Outfitters.

Rock star muse. Moss has been romantically linked to musicians like Pete Doherty and husband Jamie Hince, and her rock and roll personal life spilled over into her wardrobe with skull scarves, skinny jeans, and waistcoats.
