She has countless iconic looks under her belt ever since first rising to prominence as the face of nineties and noughties fashion.
But arguably none are more memorable than an apparently ‘thrown together’ Glastonbury outfit she wore while dating Pete Doherty in 2005.
Kate’s stylist and friend James Brown claimed Kate is not one to meticulously plan her festival looks and put it together on the morning of the event.
The model’s glitzy gold dress – handed down to her by 70s actress and Rolling Stones muse Anita Pallenberg – and Hunter wellies proved an instant hit.
Kate, 50, teamed the outfit with a ‘Glastonbury Rocks’ belt she had purchased the day before and her hair was worn loose with minimal to no make-up.
The outfit, which is still talked about nearly two decades later, has clearly been an inspiration for one of Kate’s dresses in her high street collection.

One of Kate’s most memorable looks was a ‘thrown together’ Glastonbury outfit she wore while dating Pete Doherty in 2005
Speaking about the memorable festival look, James told the Standard: ‘It happened straight away.
Comparing the reaction to that which followed her yellow Calvin Klein moment at the 1995 Met Gala, he said: ‘It became like an instant, iconic moment. It was like this sort of yellow dress moment. Literally iconic overnight, a picture that’s always gonna be ingrained in everyone’s memory.’
In a versatile, wearable, cross-generational collection, Kate has taken her knowledge, banked from her life at the highest tier of fashion with one eve perennially locked on the street and translated it into a contemporary collection of classic party pieces.
The collection boasts laser cut dresses in cream and black, cut on the bias with personal detailing, as well as a smattering of prints, including Moss favourites leopard and 1930s vintage tea dress.
It also includes ‘jackets pulled from the back of a wardrobe and remodelled for maximum modem relevance’ and ‘coats, shoes and accessories telling stories of the night’.
‘I’ve enjoyed working with Zara on campaigns over the years and always loved their collaborations, so when Marta and I first talked about this project I was excited about getting to design clothes again and work with Katy England,’ Kate Moss said in a statement.
Describing her motivation behind the launch, she added: ‘For this collection, I wanted to create the perfect party capsule – pieces that feel effortlessly chic but with an edge.
