Feeding Frenzy Begins For Kate Moss's Clothes

In an industry based on people telling other people how to dress, at least one model is moving to the other side of the table. Kate Moss's long-awaited clothing collection goes on sale today in Britain's Topshop chain -- a precursor to our Forever 21 and H&M which established itself as the fashion spot in the '90s. Last night on trendy Oxford Street, some 500 rabid fans waited in line for a preview of the designer duds described by their creator as "edgy but playful," according to Bloomberg News.

Moss even made an appearance at the preview, despite allegations by the New York Post, among others, that the entire collection copies clothes Moss has worn in the past. (We mean, isn't that the idea?) Not sure if they gave her the $10,000 fellow supermodel Linda Evangelista used to require to get out of bed, but Moss was already paid a cool 3 million pounds ($5.9 million) to create the line and model it, too, so maybe that was incentive enough.

Can't get your passport in time? Moss's line will also be making its bows at Barneys in New York starting on May 9 -- which is lucky, because the Topshop website is being a little fickle.
