Described as a winning collection by her boss Philip Green, Kate Moss launches her latest Topshop range on Thursday. But it's not just the UK market that can grab a piece of her famed style, as the retailer opens its flagship store in New York.
Before it hits the shops, on both sides of the Atlantic, we've got a sneak peek at the supermodel's spring/summer 2009 collection.
Mostly made up of Kate's signature of summer dresses the latest collection takes inspiration from vintage items picked up in thrift stores, seventies hippy chic and rock chick looks Debbie Harry would be proud of.
As every girl knows the dress is the perfect summer item and Kate Moss has delivered a vast selection. From easy throw-on tea dresses and sun dresses to glamorous evening sequined creations - the dress is queen in Kate's latest offering.
A favourite of the model-turned-designer is a cute floral full-skirted dress, £60, that takes its inspiration from an old vintage item Kate picked up in a thrift store in LA that did not fit.
In a first for Topshop, the High Street store has teamed up with luxury department store Liberty, with seven key pieces from the new collection sporting prints inspired by the Liberty's design archive.Bringing her playful and romantic touch to the store's iconic designs, Kate reworked three prints alongside the label's designers creating modern designs which are personal to Kate.
Below she models Poppy, the most youthful and playful of the three prints, with enlarged red blooms set against a sky blue background in a cotton mini dress, £55.
Stealing the limelight from leather, suede features heavily in the spring/summer collection. The striking laser-cut mini dress, below, displays delicate leaf-like patterns in an elegant take on the rock 'n' roll spirit of Kate's wardrobe. The flowing rose print black dress, £60, is perfect for either a beach cover-up or elegant evening wear.
If you're feeling plush, the cream diamente 'sunburst' dress embodies evening glamour and showcases what Kate does best.
At the punky end of the style spectrum is a dramatic black suede biker jacket adorned with painted and embellished feathers around the neckline, £120, here teamed with a denim safari playsuit, £50.
Kate Moss for Topshop is entering its ninth collection on the UK high street as New York City waits in anticipation for the launch of Topshop's debut American outlet on Broadway on Thursday.
She will appear as a special guest at the grand opening, when Sir Philip and Lady Green will throw open the doors of the flagship American store for the first time.
