Kate Moss for Topshop

Looking at Kate Moss' spring/summer 09 collection for Topshop, released on Thursday, I'm really not seeing what all the fuss is about. Kate Moss, known to be THE style icon of the 21st Century, has never particularly enthralled me. Though she does look good, I find her day wear quite boring, especially when you then get a million copycats across Britain sporting Moss' "uniform" of skinny jeans, a blazer and ankle boots or pumps.The only piece I actually quite like from the collection is the liberty print dress (seen above), which shows Moss is aware of the trends she never wears. However most of the collection just seems to be quite bland, in comparison with her previous collections, though Sir Phillip Green did say this was her best season so far. Yet most of the pieces are quite random, they don't fit easily together as a collection, and her patterns are quite lurid.

Moss' collection just seems overpriced and overrated, and yet you know it will all sell out immediately because everyone wants a piece of her.

Do you think Kate Moss is
overrated?

Yay or Nay?
