Kate Moss and Topshop to finish design deal

A three-year design partnership between Kate Moss and Topshop is to end afterward this year.

When the supermodel reveals her autumn and winter range in October – it will be her 14th and last collection for the chain.

Ms Moss began working with Topshop through her friendship among the firm’s boss, retail tycoon Sir Philip Green.

Both parties refute any rift, with Sir Philip saying the model had “other commitments”.

It is thought that Ms Moss, 36, has made at least £3m from the ranges – many of which proved admired with Topshop customers.

When Ms Moss’s designs were first revealed, thousands of people queued up outside Topshop’s Oxford Street flagship store, leading newspapers to dub the event “Moss mania”.

The tie-up was the earliest in the long line of celebrity deals, with H&M subsequently hiring Stella McCartney, Madonna and Karl Lagerfield to design for them.
