Kate Moss for Topshop - a closer look at the sequinned mini
Don't worry, you're on the home straight now! We've been eating, sleeping and breathing Kate Moss for the last 24 hours, and it's almost time for a break. This is the final piece we have to show you from the Kate Moss for Topshop collection, though we've got lots of videos and a final round-up to come before we sign off on the event completely (go on, you know you love it really).
I thought I'd finish on a high, with Kim looking very supermodel-esque in the showstopping chain mail style sequinned mini dress (£120). It might, logistically, be one of the most difficult dresses to wear (Kim was scared to sit down for fear of tearing it) but it definitely looks very Kate and would turn a lot of heads!
Because of the way it's constructed (big paillettes are held together by fine thread) the dress is not only delicate, it's also incredibly sheer and see-through so it needs a black slip (surprisingly hard to fin) or very thick tights and a longline vest underneath to keep you from showing off too much. Kate Moss could probably get away with wearing it with nothing but a pair of knickers, but as we all know, she's the exception to just about every style rule going.
Considering we do actually need to move about and do things in real life, £120 for a dress like this is a lot to pay if you're not good at mending. You may be lucky and wear it ten times without a single thread coming loose, but something tells me sod's law would come into play the first time I wore something like this in public, and I'd end up half-naked, leaving a trail of sequins in my wake. It looks fantastic on Kim and I think the black tights and super-high heels finish it off a treat, but I don't think even she would trust herself to wear this on a night out!
