The wonderful Hilary Alexander

which leads nicely onto her article about that night from the telegraph:

Kate Moss celebrates Christmas early
Last Updated: 12:01am BST 17/10/2007

Hilary Alexander went behind the scenes at the launch of Kate Moss's new range for Topshop

Kate Moss celebrated Christmas a few weeks’ early at Annabel’s in London last night, and she has every reason to celebrate.
She is looking great. She has a new haircut (fringe + choppy, shoulder length bob) and a new boyfriend, Jamie Hince, guitarist with The Kills. And she has just presided over her third and best-yet collection for Topshop. She marked the occasion with a glamorous dinner and fashion show at the legendary nightclub in Berkeley Square, which she co-hosted with Topshop/Arcadia supremo, Sir Philip Green.
For all its star-studded celebrity, royal and rock ‘n’ roll rating - Princess Beatrice, Naomi Campbell in Alexander McQueen, Sophie Dahl and boyfriend Jamie Cullum, Elle Macpherson, Lily Allen in vintage Claude Montana, Sir Bob Geldof, Bobby Gillespie, Chrissie Hynde, David Walliams, Sadie Frost, Jade Jagger in Yves Saint Laurent, for starters - there was a buzzy, friendly intimacy about the whole evening.
Kate was positively glowing, her hair and skin as gleaming as the black satin ,halter-neck, ‘cat suit’ from the collection which she wore with a vintage, 1920’s silver beaded cape. She radiated happiness and, as they say, her smile just beamed.
The collection was shown on a gold catwalk which snaked between the tables - the first time Kate has seen her clothes in a proper fashion show-catwalk situation.
"I thought I was going to have a nervous breakdown this morning," Kate told me. "But then, once I saw the run-through and the clothes on the girls I realised it was going to be alright."
She was spot-on. Heavy on black - which, as every girl and woman knows is THE most flattering colour - the clothes mixed 1920’s flapper, Biba and disco diva influences in a manner that was both sassy and sophisticated.
Great mini-dresses - which also worked as tunics over wide trousers and leggings - were embellished with fine black sequins and beads. Long, ‘hippie’ dresses were bias-cut and patchworked in floral and black lace.
Sir Philip’s daughter Chloe was wearing one of the star pieces from the collection: a cream and silver beaded Charleston shift, which also comes in black and silver. There was a gold ‘romper’ playsuit and a pair of skimpy hot-pants which only a Kate-clone could wear, but these were balanced by LBD’s with long sleeves trimmed with feathers and well-tailored tuxedo-style trouser-suits - in black, a la Marlene or cream, as in Bianca. Sir Bob’s girlfriend, Jeanne Marine, said she wanted ‘every single piece’. Lily Allen couldn’t wait to get her hands on the dresses.
The disco diva vibe was particularly appropriate, since after dinner (lobster salad, blackened cod, choccy pud), Sir Philip unveiled a surprise guest - Grace Jones, who writhed sinuously inside a billowing Issey Miyake witch’s cape, blown and tossed by a friendly wind machine, while husking ‘Slave to the Rhythm’. It was when she hit her stride - and some wild, screamingly-high notes - in La Vie En Rose, however, that the place really erupted. Kate, Naomi, Kelly Osbourne, the Geldofs, the soprano Katherine Jenkins, among others, were all lured irresistibly onto the tiny dance-floor.
Now, back in February, at London Fashion Week, when it was first mooted that Kate was about to go into the fashion business with Sir Philip, there were more than a few ‘suits’ who wondered if this was a wild card too far for the high street entrepreneur. Kate appeared to have survived the ‘Cocaine Kate’ scandal of September 2005. But she was still irredeemably attached to the former junkie, Pete Docherty and, with her unkempt hair and sallow complexion, appeared, at times, to be matching him in the unsavoury stakes.
Kate’s first collection came in for criticism for being a bit of a riff on her own wardrobe. The second fared better. And, now, with this Christmas collection, it is becoming increasingly obvious this is no flash-in-the-pan for Britain’s most famous model. Even those at Topshop who may have had initial doubts about her commitment to the fashion venture, now are full of praise for her involvement, application and enthusiasm.
Ms Moss is obviously in this for the long-haul and with every successive notch on her retail career ladder she is becoming more and more assured and her collections are developing a distinctive signature.
It is quite extraordinary to think this has all happened in just nine months.

I donīt think itīs bad at all to wear the same clothes often.
Her legs look long in jeans like that.Maybe itīs just because of her skinniess,but they look longer than they really are.

We have a thread on it 16 pages long; enjoy. I love it too, but apparently it comes with a pricetag.

It's funny that she would go over to Davinia's just to change her shoes and scarf.
