Kate Moss's Style: The Evolving Wardrobe of Fashion's Most Rebellious Muse

At the 1991 Designer of the Year Awards held during London Fashion Week, a young Moss dressed in a grey micro-mini skirt and massive white fur coat, a look capturing the essence of quintessential '90s style. It was one of the key moments that exhibited Moss's love for both minimalism and drama.

True to her '90s style roots, the slip dress has become a hallmark of Moss's style throughout her career. At the 1993 Elite Model Agency Party, Moss wore a sheer metallic slip dress showing her waifish figure that became synonymous with the popularised, but controversial “heroin chic” look. 

In 1994 with then-boyfriend, Johnny Depp, Moss paid hommage to the beloved flapper style of the '20s at the premiere of the film Ed Wood in a dress designed by Calvin Klein. A personal vintage find from the model, the mini dress not only showed off her killer legs, but the sequins were a preview of what would soon become a mainstay in the supermodel's wardrobe.

While a fan of fashion classics, a young Moss showed she still always puts her own twist on whatever she wears. Here she shows us that no little black dress is complete without a layer of voluminous feathers.

This black sequin turtleneck dress and casual updo quintessentially characterize Moss's style. The high-neck cut deviated from the typical style of the era while still being one of the most engaging looks of the 1995 Golden Globes.

Attending her first Met Gala with Christy Turlington and Naomi Campbell in 1995, the young Moss wore a minimal floor-length bias-cut dress designed by the person she credits for her success, Calvin Klein. Being known for bolder styles, Moss's subtle approach to this red carpet was a mark of her embracing a love of minimalism that would become more prominent in her looks in the future.

Appearing at a Halloween party at New York's Supper Club, Moss attended the celebration, also known as fashion's favorite holiday, in a subversive take on the traditional magician. Sporting a sheer lace dress, dramatic dark eye shadow, boa, and top hat, Moss showed that only she could create a costume that would make us want to dress like a magician every day. 

Never one to shy away from a daring look, Moss and fellow supermodel Naomi Campbell, dressed in chainmail slip dresses by Versace with De Beers jewels to create a liquid metal look at the charity gala in 1999. 

Showing she is an icon that knows how to celebrate herself, at Moss's 30th birthday party she themed the fete based on the F. Scott Fitzgerald book, The Beautiful and The Damned. Once again highlighting her affinity for sequins, Moss's midnight blue party look was a celebration of her love of dramatic looks. 

At Glastonbury, one of the biggest music festivals in the world, Moss gave us a lesson on how to look chic and be practical at the same time. Sporting a leather jacket, disheveled hair, a bucket bag, and the classic English Hunter wellington boots, this look became an instant viral image and a definitive moment in the Moss style archives.

Attending the O2 Wireless annual music festival in Hyde Park, London, Moss once again shows her style versatility, and her love for music festivals in a bohemian-inspired look. 

Close friends Moss and Marc Jacobs attended the Met Gala together in 2009, themed “Model As Muse.” The theme fit the pair perfectly and emphasized the important relationship between designers and models in defining the fashion of the era. Jacobs dressed Moss for the evening in a one-shoulder metallic dress and headpiece. 

In a much-anticipated event of the decade, in 2011, Moss married The Kills guitarist, Jamie Hince, in custom Galliano. The rhinestone-studded gown combined with her vintage embellished lace veil did not disappoint fashion lovers or Pinterest boards who were awaiting the wedding of the year.

Once again, dressed by iconic designer Marc Jacobs, Moss emits a goddess-like glow in this golden number at the launch party in London to celebrate Kate: The Kate Moss Book by Rizzoli New York. In true Moss style, she chose to wear the dress backward, solidifying her iconic rebellious and unique approach to fashion. 

A historic moment in fashion, Moss walked the runway for Marc Jacobs's last show for his Fall/Winter 2013 collection for Louis Vuitton. Modeling the prestigious finale look, Moss looked striking in a sheer, embroidered gown and a dark pixie wig. 

No article about Moss's style would be complete without an ode to her love of cheetah print. In this paparazzi image from a night out in 2015, Moss wears a cheetah coat off her shoulders on top of a glittery dress. Since the '90s, this staple has defined her style and continues to transcend decades later. 

Close friends with the late designer Alexander McQueen, Moss attends the opening of the now-famous exhibit Savage Beauty at the Victoria and Albert Museum in London. Moss wore a dramatic floor-length sheer lace gown from the McQueen Pre-Fall 2015 collection while opting to forego the original black lining – once again making customizing designer looks a true mainstay of signature Moss style. 

Once again walking the runway in one of the most momentous events in fashion history, Moss appeared in the Louis Vuitton fashion show for Kim Jones' final season as men’s artistic director. Legendary fashion duo Campbell and Moss closed the show hand-in-hand with the designer as an epic farewell wearing the men’s streetwear of the season. These monogrammed trenches reflected the timelessness of both the brand and the supermodel muses.
