Kate Moss

What Katie Did Next

of course it was courtney.jpgWhen life gives you lemons, make lemonade.

That’s exactly what Kate Moss did Tuesday night at the V&A Ball, when Courtney Love trampled the train of her vintage Dior couture gown, ripping the back right open.

What’s a supermodel to do?

Take it in stride, of course. In a move reminiscent of ’90s-era Mentos commercials in which the best was always made of a wardrobe malfunction, Ms. Moss headed to numerous afterparties after some clever adjustments—

the supermodel nixed the three-foot train and instead tied the dress around her waist, going from glamorous to glam rock in the blink of a fiercely-lined eye.

I'm sure Courtney stepping on Kate's train was purely an accident.

FIRST ARTICLE! Congrats Natalie! The dress looks better after. Obviously all of Kate's designing skillz have paid off.

yeah, apparently courtney love and pete are an item. What a hag! At least Kate can look good while getting trashed.

Kate's a smart cookie on the fashion front, and obviously pulled this off well, but I can't help but think that if I tried the same creative clothing disaster recovery scheme I'd be laughed out of the building.
