Our favourite recovering cokehead supermodel, Kate Moss, appears in a very avant-garde fashion shoot, which contains 18 prints of the model locked out of the exclusive (and historic!) Pierre Bergé-Yves Saint Laurent Foundation in Paris. The fashion house’s creative director, Stefano Pilati, personally chose Moss for the Spring/Summer 08 advert campaign. Of particular note is that Kate appears to have forgotten her skirt shirt in most of these shots. Is shirt off sick?
According to Pilati, Moss is said to embody “timeless beauty” for Yves Saint Laurent, and, Kate is, apparently, the perfect blank slate with which to promote Yves Saint Laurent’s twisted logic masquerading as democracy:
Pilati, like Saint Laurent himself, believes in the fairness of democracy, so these pictures will appear in 24-page magazine, Manifesto, printed on recycled newspaper.
Two million free copies will be handed out on Saturday in London and Milan, and then later in Paris, New York and Tokyo. “My aim is to speak to everyone with the same spirit and message,” says Pilati.
Yes, every one of these freely available magazines glorified adverts all contain the same pictures of Kate Moss selling $1600 - $8000 dresses and suits. This groundbreaking evenhandedness is, of course, the essence of democracy. Oh yes, and she is topless.

Since I am a fan of the more amply bosomed woman, Our Heroine has all the allure of a 12 year old boy.
I think she is cute.

I cannot think of a less exciting person to put topless in an advertisement. Plenty of more repulsive people, certainly, but I don’t think I’ve ever been quite so indifferent looking at a woman with no shirt on. If I feel anything at all, it’s the urge to make Kate a sandwich before she falls over.
