Playboy have chosen to mark their 60th anniversary by featuring one of the world’s most iconic fashion stars on their cover. Kate Moss. Not that this is a huge surprise, the news came out long before the cover. Kate Moss’ hair stylist on the shoot leaked his involvement with the project, which was shot by Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott, and from that point onwards, speculation was rife.
But this did not make the big reveal of the final shot any less exciting. Kate Moss virtually purrs off the cover (do rabbits purr?!), her many years worth of experience in the modelling world evident in her perfect pout and superbly executed pose. Kate knees clothed in the traditional Playboy bunny outfit, of the highest quality of course. There is not a hint of polyester in sights, the cuffs are starched, the stilettos are undoubtedly Louboutin (the red sole carefully concealed), and the Playboy cufflinks is are sure to be abundant in carats.
Glowing skin, a refreshing lack of obvious makeup, nude polished nails and perfectly coiffed hair all compliment the renowned costume.
Editorial director Jimmy Jellinek had this to say of the Brit belle’s involvement with the special edition. ‘Playboy’s anniversary edition is a testament to 60 years of beautiful women, discerning taste, sexual emancipation, groundbreaking fiction and world-changing journalism. Having Kate Moss, a global icon and the most important supermodel of the past 25 years, appear on our cover makes this issue the perfect way to launch Playboy’s next 60 years.’
Kate Moss appeared at designer friend Marc Jacob’s Mount Street store in London yesterday in order to publicise the edition.
