Description from the seller

Intimate photographs never before published, taken just before Kate Moss rose to fame, in an elegant volume. This beautifully produced book presents intimate, never-before-seen portraits of a young and unknown Kate Moss, shot in the early 1990s by her then-boyfriend, Italian photographer Mario Sorrenti. Seen through Calvin Klein, the photographs inspired the famous Obsession campaign, launching Moss to international stardom.

Luxuriously reproduced in trichromy and presented in a fabric-clad seashell box, Kate is an extraordinary photographic portfolio of one of the most iconic figures in contemporary culture. It includes images added to the book and seashell box covers, as well as an introductory essay by Sorrenti, which places the work in his unique personal context. This book, celebrating the dawn of two legendary careers and the onset of the highly influential 1990s fashion-photography aesthetic, is a must-have for Kate Moss fans, fashion enthusiasts, and lovers of traditional portraiture and fashion photography.
