Kate Moss, the iconic model who not only defined her era but transcended it, has ingeniously merged two legendary figures into one striking persona.

The 52-year-old British supermodel seamlessly combined the voluptuous allure of Marilyn Monroe with the effortless chic of Brigitte Bardot, a muse of the French New Wave, in a captivating photoshoot for Edward Enniful’s EE72.

In collaboration once again with her long-time creative partner, photographer Nick Knight, Ms. Moss oscillated between the opulence of Hollywood’s golden age and the edgy sophistication of 1960s Paris in the magazine’s third issue.

One striking image features Ms. Moss elegantly seated barefoot on a polished gold piano, donning a sleek black Gucci dress. Her tousled blonde locks cascade over her face, channeling the grandeur of classic Hollywood glamour.

In another shot, she is adorned in an off-the-shoulder jersey dress by Schiaparelli, accentuated by a dazzling platinum, gold, and diamond ring from Tiffany & Co.

Reuniting with long-time collaborator Nick Knight for the magazine’s third issue, Ms Moss flickered between old Hollywood decadence and Sixties Parisian edge

Her softly styled waves and intense gaze perfectly encapsulate a timeless cinematic aesthetic.

The collaboration marks yet another chapter in her enduring creative partnership with Knight, who has previously likened her cultural reach to that of a ‘Hollywood blockbuster,’ describing her as ‘an incredibly good model’ and ‘very, very rare’ talent.

Meanwhile, make-up artist Charlotte Tilbury, 53, said: ‘Kate is the face of a generation. She’s magnetic, she’s a style icon, but her influence transcends beauty and fashion – she is a tastemaker who has truly shaped culture.

‘Kate has such a unique magnetism on set – there’s a magic that happens when she’s in front of the camera. The way she moves, the way she morphs into character, it’s truly something to behold. She has the most powerful authenticity – there’s only one Kate.’

It comes just weeks after Ms Moss returned to the Gucci catwalk to close the fashion house’s autumn/winter 2026 show in Milan, wearing a floor-length black sequined gown with a plunging open back.

In a nod to her nineties heyday, the look revealed a flash of a visible ‘whale tail’ G-string.

The moment marked a full-circle moment for the supermodel, who famously walked in Tom Ford’s debut Gucci collection in 1995, and this time joined a star-studded line-up including Karlie Kloss, 33, Emily Ratajkowski, 34, and Irina Shayk, 40.

The model appears to be ageing backwards after ditching her years of hard partying.

Nowadays, Kate has regular juice fasts, and favours the week-long juice-only programme at wellness LifeCo resort in Turkey – she’s visited every year for the past decade.

Kate is the proud owner of wellness business, Cosmoss which sells a range of own-brand teas, skincare products and a book of 150 ‘positive messages’.

Another photograph saw her wearing an off-the-shoulder jersey dress by Schiaparelli, accessorised with a platinum, gold, and diamond ring from Tiffany & Co

Her softly sculpted waves and smouldering gaze completed the cinematic look

Meanwhile, make-up artist Charlotte Tilbury, 53, said: ‘Kate is the face of a generation. She’s magnetic, she’s a style icon, but her influence transcends beauty and fashion.’

She has a £4,000 Cadillac Pilates reformer machine at home, and a personal trainer, Hortense Suleyman.

A magazine source said: ‘The brand is late on the bandwagon — candles, serums and perfume are all quite middle-aged. But she’s been having lots of meetings with people and Cosmoss is stocked in Harrods. I know she has great hopes for it.’

Over the years, Kate has given an insight into how she stays looking so good, revealing her tips and tricks for maintaining her youthful look.

She told Net-A-Porter: ‘I stay hydrated on the flight and try to eat only light foods. I find adapting to the new time zone as soon as I arrive is helpful, so I try to stay up until my usual bedtime.’
