📖 A British Icon

Kate Moss is a famous fashion model. She comes from England where she still lives with her daughter Lila Grace. She was born in 1974 in a little village near London. Now, she is famous all around the world.

She has long blond hair and hazel eyes. She has fair skin and she isn't as tall as the average model. People describe her as "size zero" because she is short and slim.

Kate Moss likes wearing casual clothes when she is not working. Her favourite outfit is a pair of jeans, a T-shirt and a pair of sneakers. When it's cold, she usually wears a coat or a jacket. She sometimes wears expensive dresses and designer clothes for her job. No matter what she is wearing, she always looks beautiful.

She is a designer too. She designs clothes for a British store: TopShop.
