British
model Kate Moss may be 40, but her career shows no signs of slowing down - not only
does she appear regularly on the pages of Vogue, but the model continues to
land high profile campaigns for beauty companies such as Rimmel and recently
collaborated yet again with Topshop on her own fashion line. There is no
stopping Kate's already impressive career and she's also seen as one of
Britain's biggest fashion icons. The model has admitted that she herself
doesn't understand why magazines continue to ask her to cover their issues,
saying it's quite "weird" that her career hasn't stopped. She
joked: ''I know it's weird though, innit? 'Cause I don't understand, I
mean... let's not question it!''
Kate
recalls one of her famous past shoots for 'The Face' magazine where she is seen
grinning widely at a very young age. She says that while she may come across as
confident in the early shoot, she was actually very self-conscious back in
those days: ''It was funny, but at the same time I was really embarrassed
about my body. Very, very self-conscious. I was 14 or 15, still at school.''
The
model is known for beginning the 'heroin chic' model trend and says she didn't
purposefully set out to create that image - it was as a result of not having
access to food while working: ''I think I was just really young and thin,
I mean my daughter's tiny... I was working in fashion, back in the
day they didn't feed you. The jobs I was doing they didn't have catering.''
