BEIJING, August 1 (Xinhuanet) -- Supermodel Kate Moss has
been voted onto Vanity Fair magazine's top list for the best dressed people in
the world.
The 32-year-old graces the cover of the forthcoming issue
wearing nothing but a white fur hat, long white gloves, and over-the-knee
leather boots.
The magazine's fashion and style director, Michael
Roberts, said Moss was elevated to Vanity Fair's "Hall of Fame" after getting
more votes than any other woman for a place on its 67th annual International
Best-Dressed List.
He said she was "the most followed style icon of our
time". "She looks ravishing whether she's going to the grocery store or walking
the red carpet," Roberts said.
The sexy Vanity Fair cover is the latest move in Moss'
career comeback. She entered a drug rehab clinic in Arizona last year after
pictures of her allegedly using cocaine were published in a British tabloid. In
June, prosecutors said there was insufficient evidence to charge Moss.
After the cocaine allegations Moss was dropped by
Burberry, and the high street chain H&M; and the cosmetic brand Rimmel
announced that it was reviewing her contract.
Chanel decided not to renew her contract. Moss's response
was to apologise, check into rehab and distance herself from Pete Doherty, the
lead Babyshambles singer, who has also had drug problems.
The strategy worked: Moss has had her contract renewed by
Burberry, remained the face of Rimmel and acquired deals with a list of
organisations that include Versace, Calvin Klein, Bulgari, Stella McCartney,
Virgin Mobile and Nikon. Her predicted earnings have been put at more than twice
the level before the scandal erupted.
Karl Lagerfeld summed up her appeal when he said recently:
"There is no second Kate Moss. People want to look like her and be like her."
