Kate Moss runs into trouble with white powder again (this time skiing in the French Alps)



But it was exactly those qualities which deserted the Kate Moss as she took a rather undignified tumble on the ski slopes.

And if that wasn't embarrassing enough, the supermodel dealt a serious blow to her reputation as an international style icon by appearing in exactly the same outfit she donned four years ago.

Gone: A ski instructor dives in to help the catwalk queen after she loses her poise

With all her millions in the bank and her connections in the fashion industry, one would have thought it was easy for the 36-year-old to update her wardrobe.

But she opted for the same all-in-one black salopettes she first showed off in Colorado in January 2006, when she was dating 20-year-old model Jamie Burke.

However, she did switch the beige fur hat she wore on that occasion for a black version this time around.

Ice moves: Her boyfriend Jamie Hince didn't fare much better and also skidded over

And she was not the only one having difficulty on Sunday. Her rock star boyfriend Jamie Hince looked equally unsure of himself as he lost a ski halfway down the mountain at their resort in France.

He eventually ended up flailing his arms around as he struggled to keep his balance and composure under the gaze of a local instructor.
One onlooker, who watched on as Kate collapsed on the slope, said: 'It was amusing to watch someone usually so graceful collapse in a heap.

Rugged up: Kate opted for the same all-in-one black salopettes she showed off in Colorado in January 2006​

'To be fair she was a little better than her boyfriend who even managed to lose one of his skis.'
Not surprisingly, the hedonistic supermodel, renowned for her partying excesses, and the guitarist looked most at home in the bar as they indulged in a spot of aprés ski following the morning's exertions.

The pair, who were also joined by Moss's seven-year-old daughter Lila Grace, jetted out to France to celebrate Valentine's Day and shared a kiss in a local restaurant after finishing on the slopes.

Time to relax: The model shared a tender moment with Hince after their time on the piste


While most of Miss Moss's contemporaries are living it up in New York for Fashion Week, the supermodel decided to give it a miss this year following the tragic and untimely death of designer and her good friend Alexander McQueen last week.

The model looked in a relaxed mood after a devastating week in which McQueen was found dead at his London home after committing suicide.

Kate was left stunned when she heard the news, but was too distraught to speak and instead issued a statement through her agent

the daily mail
 
Those candids above look exactly the same from 5 years ago...the holiday she took with Jamie Doran (sp?)...
 
I dislike how she's getting flack for "wearing the same thing"...one of the things that I love about kate is that she re-wears clothes (when she obviously has enough money to wear something new everyday). It looks a little desperate to always have to be see in something new. It makes her very real, and it shows confidence in her choices...like every piece has made it there on its own merits....think about her fur coats,black belt or hobo balenciaga.....she knows what she likes and she sticks with it!
 
I love her for re-wearing her clothes- Theres nothing wrong with that. She looks so good in there. Cuddly with Jaime and happy!
 
who the hell buys a new ski clothes every year anyway? professionals but that's about it.
 
Errr :huh: no one said it was bad she was wearing the same outfit...it's a ski outfit!

so so true. :flower:
 
They don't look like the most athletically inclined people...at least she is having fun though.
 
I just think that whole bit from the Daily Mail is so idiotic. I mean seriously who cares if she's wearing the same outfit she did years ago, its not like she's some professional. The part about her and Jamie falling is even more stupid. Big deal, who cares? Again its not like she goes skiing all the time so why is that so shocking to them? She's having fun and that's what matters.
 
there is a nice little interview with Kate in this weeks Grazia magazine. I probably wont be able to get to my scanner until later in the week so a few titbits to bide you over until then:

first fashion buy: katherine hamnett boots. used to buy bags of clothes from jumble sales for a quid and make skirts from her mothers old jeans as a kid.
style icon: Julie Christie from the 60's/70's
favourite designers: ysl, mme gres., mcqueen, galliano, westwood.

Biggest influence on her career:
"I think Fabien Baron has been a huge factor in my career. He got me the contact with CK and I still work with him now. If it wasn't for him I dont know where Id be..."

fashion memory:
"Any of John Galliano's shows. John would stand on the runway and tell you a story about who you were. He'd say, 'You're a princess and you've just escaped from the castle and you're running away from the wolves,' and the wolves would be howling on the soundrtack and he'd send you out and he'd cry 'Run, Kate, run!"

Proudest moment in her career:
""It has to be the CK Obsession campaign which was shot with my then boyfriend Mario Sorerenti when I was 17 and he was 21. We created it entirely on our own - there was no stylist , no hair or makeup. We were sent to an island and just got on with it - and it ran for a really long time, 8 years, I think.

The accompanying photos are from the Kate Moss for Longchamp campaign.
 
I love Kate and Jamie skiing candids! Too cute:heart:
Her hair is back to looking like the amazing kate-hair she use to have lol
 
^ Thanks for typing that up laisla. The Obsession campaign is definitely one of my favourite things that Kate has done. ^_^
