Most men have probably fantasised about what it would be like to wake up in the bed of a supermodel, especially one as beautiful as Kate Moss. Auctioneers Moore Allen & Innocent are offering the chance to do just that as they put a bed formerly owned by Kate under the hammer today. Kate may not have slept in the large, pine double for more than four years, but for many it will be the closest they will ever get to the style icon.
The bedstead, handmade by Yells of Fairford, occupied the master bedroom of a Cotswold cottage in Southrop, Gloucestershire, which Miss Moss rented between 2001 and 2004. Now being sold on behalf of the owners of the property, the bed carries an estimate of £200 to £300, and will go under the hammer at auctioneer Moore Allen & Innocent's pre-Christmas sale this Friday.
A spokesman for Moore Allen & Innocent said: "Any hot-blooded male whose seasonal fantasy involves no more than waking up in Kate Moss's bed on Christmas morn - or any morn, for that matter - can now have that fantasy fulfilled from as little as £200."
Bidding for the bed is likely to be fierce since any item of clothing, piece of art or memorabilia linked to Miss Moss has proved popular in the past. In September, a self-portrait drawn by the 34-year-old in lipstick and marked with her lip prints sold for £33,600 at auction in London.
