Kate Moss Through The Years: Photos

Kate Moss Through The Years: Photos — Model behavior! When you think of catwalk queens, Kate Moss is one of the first names to come to mind. And the beauty – who celebrates her birthday on Jan. 16 – has certainly made her mark on the fashion world.

Known for her slight figure and waifish features, the British-born beauty stepped onto the scene in the early 90s. Her unvarnished, grunge-inspired look, which was a stark contrast to the glossy supermodels of the day, took over fashion. She stormed the catwalks of luxury brands like Chanel and Louis Vuitton was featured on countless covers of British Vogue. Though she’s courted some controvery over the years, Kate continues to walk top runways to this day.

Kate Moss is seen as just a girl in the 1970s in this shot taken in her native Croydon, England. So cute!
