Style Trial: Kate Moss

Kate Moss donned this shocker of a dress for the 2009 British Fashion Awards. I have to say, usually I find she hits the mark with her style choices – but for me – this is a huge miss.


The busy, floor-length dress is John Galliano for Dior, and is, in my opinion, hideous. I find the frills, polka dots and sheer panelling to be overdone, it looks a bit like a Spanish senorita dress that someone has hacked away at with a scissors.


On top of that, in some vague attempt to give the outfit a bit of edge she threw on an equally horrible biker belt with large silver hoops. Why, Kate, why!


Her hair and make-up are pretty nice I have to say, a simple pulled back chignon and a classic smokey eye give her a polished look without looking try-hard.


Still doesn’t make up for that disaster of a frock though.


Do you think I’m overreacting?!

I actually thing the dress is quite nice and edgy, maybe someone a bit curvier could pull it off a bit better, but i think it's not that bad really. I have to disagree about the hair though, i think it looks limp pulled back so tight off her face, a softer hairstyle might have changed the look of the outfit completely. I LOVE the belt...not convinced about it wtih the dress but otherwise i totally love the belt.

Her dress would look much better with a cleaner hemline and possibly a sash rather than a belt
