Kate Moss For TopShop

just got back from shopping. I only bought the floral blouse in the end because the dresses I like were all sizes 12 and up and were too big. I tried on the corset tee but it just screamed WAG as soon as I put it on! I wanted the black ray-banesque sunnies but they didnt seem to have them in stock. The selection of clothes was smaller than I expected seeing as its a huge store. I didnt spot any coctail dresses execpt the plain white dress and the black one with the cut out front. Most of the stock was just the ribed vest tops. stacks of them in every colour!

I liked the black waist coat but again there were none in my size. I completely forgot to try on the croped skinnies. hopefully there will be some when I next go.

The cream cotton jacket was the biggest dissapointment, not very nice up close and the finish wasnt very good either. the sheer tunnic/kaftan was rubbish as well.

I think the quality of the fabric is pretty fair, same sort of fabric you'd expect in topshop anyway. I found tops and dresses to be pretty much true to size. I will have to echo past comments that the clothes are made with the moss like body in mind. boyish and slim figures will relish in the clothes but if your above a 14 I think you'll be dissapointed by the cut.

all in all its exactly what you expect fro the collaboration. great for mossaholics but avoid completely if your not a fan.


just to let you know, topshop have ordered huge quantities so its unlikely they will run out of stock anytime soon. no need to head to ebay just yet. im sure those outside of topshops shipping zone can organise with someone here to help them out.
 
does anyone know if this dress is available in other colours besides white? (nydailynews.com)

i think everyone should sneak cameras into the dressing rooms! i want to see what these garments are like!

thanks laisla! I needed someone to report back! Do you mind me asking what was so bad with the corset tee? Is it the cut? or fabric?
 
only for some items but not for everything. i guess throughout the next several weeks top shop will be adding new kate moss items to the website right?

...dang....there are over 800 items on ebay for the kate moss topshop stuff!!!

Topshop has updated their website! More stock online, if anyone is interested!

Plenty of the Pansy dresses available by the looks of things...

[FONT=&quot]I cant put my finger on what it was that I didnt like about it, I think it was a combination of several things. the corset part of it is a shiny synthetic material which I wasnt keen on at all. obviously being a corset it is very constricting which made me feel quite uncomfortable and awkward to move about in. The corset draws attention to the tummy area which I suppose many girls do feel conscious about. I was wearing lowrise drainpipes and there was about 2 cm gap between the end of the top and my jeans. Im about 5'7"ish so I think anyone above that would find it far too short in the body.

It struck me as the sort of thing Victoria Beckham would wear and for me I couldnt get further away from her style!

Hi I'm in Australia - can anyone tell me whether a UK size 8 is the smallest size available?? Thanks.

ALL GONE AGAIN :(

stuff is going really quickly!! :D

Yeah, I just noticed...bizarre.

I gave in and got the Pansy Print dress - which have now all sold out again within a matter of minutes after I bought mine off the website.
 
Thanks for the report Laisla! I was wondering, did you see the black short dress with neck detail? How does the back look like? Did it look cheap in real life?
 
it went REALLY quickly, i just got the corset top hopefully its a ok! thanks anyhow laisla. Nicky, there is a size chart on the website.
 
Does anyone know if the Pansy dress is quite tight fitting? Just bought it online, but didn't realise it has a zip...I bet it doesn't fit me - *sigh*.
 
ive heard everything runs small....did anyone see a leather jacket in the store?

6 is the smallest in this range. topshop occasionaly do a size 4.

I cant remember if I actually picked it up and looked at the back. from what I remember, yes it did look cheap, VERY short and shapeless. If youre flat chested like me then the cut out bits will rise up and look crap. if you have a bosom then it might work a little better fit wise but i think you'd be in danger of looking tarty. I think its one to avoid unless you are very petite with a slight bust.
 
I got the Pansy Dress and it was quite tight especially under the chest it's also short! but beautiful

I also got the KM tshirt which is a lovely fit on and the cropped jeans.

the stock was gorgeous but they didnt have most of it in my store as i fell in love with the dress kate wore last night and they didnt have any of the prom type dresses at all.

Do her dresses run smaller? Just bought the Pansy dress online and didn't realise it has a zip (it didn't say) and now I think it will be too small for me and maybe I should had gone a size up?

What size did you get if you don't mind me asking? I am thinking the dress won't fit me and I should had gone one size up...although, my breast are small - is this where it is tight? Or is it tight elsewhere?
 
i thought you were the one saying only fashion victims will buy the collection?

Id say its proably true to size although it could have done with a bit of elastic just below the bust. The zip is helpful when getting it on becuse there is no stretch in the material. I would have got it if they had it in a smaller size because it does look lovely on, by far the most flattering piece in the collection.
