As well as her uncommon modeling height for a fashion model (she is only 5′7)! She is also notorious for her high-profile relationships and party lifestyle! She came 2nd on the Forbes top 15 richest supermodels list, estimated to earn £9m ($18m) in one year! With a very successful modeling career, and her own fashion line for Topshop. Kate is blazing her trail which is now ready for you to read in - ‘Kate Moss - The Complete Picture’ by Laura Collins!

Kate Moss for her own line exclusively at Topshop! Which Laura Collins touches on in her autobiography of Kate Moss.

But though she has become one of the most recognized women in the world, she remains the least understood. By her own admission, “The more visible they make me, the less visible I become.”
The book examines Kate’s ever-changing career against the backdrop of the fashion industry. It also uncovers her sometimes turbulent private life, from her relationships with Johnny Depp and Jefferson Hack to the media frenzy over her time with Pete Doherty. Based on in-depth research, Laura Collins has written the first definitive biography of one of the most glamorous women of our time!

Enter our Invisibelt - all belt & no bulk contest! Tell us how you could use one of these very trendy belts, and how it can enhance your life! As one of the latest trends hitting the runway, belts are a hot trend right now. So along comes Invisibelt to solve our belt-sizing woes!
We’ve all been there–putting on that adorable new fall sweater with our favorite jeans and there it is: that unsightly waistline bulge-eek! Eliminate the problem with Invisibelt- the functional and totally affordable solution. Not only is Invisibelt undetectable under your favorite form-fitting tops, it’s a sensible alternative to bringing your pants to the tailor when they’re a pinch too big AND provides an instant slimming effect!

Learn how to use the Invisibelt - and get it just right! Log onto How to use Invisibelt to find out more!

The Invisibelt is for any woman who wants to look her best when dressed. We all have those pants that are a pinch too big in the waist that we don’t want to alter. This functional, undetectable and affordable belt allows women to wear today’s fashions, which include longer t-shirts and sweaters, sheer tunics, and both high-rise and lower rise pants, without the problematic belt buckle bulge. It’s also ideal for those pants (especially jeans) which start out snug and stretch out over the course of a day. A bra-like adjuster makes it a cinch to adjust to your size!

Our Couture staff tried and tested the new Invisibelt! Here is what our Editor had to say!

“I am a huge accessories fan and I love belts. But I have always hated that you always end up with excess bulge when wearing fitted tops. I was very pleased when I found out about Invisibelt. What a great concept! Invisibelt totally disappears under those form fitting tops. You just adjust to your perfect size and off you go! I think every fashionista should own one. Now I have a belt that is invisible and I love it!”
