>> Just last week, it was announced that Kate Moss is working on a multi-season handbag line for Longchamp. Now, courtesy of the February 2010 issue of Vogue Paris, we get a look at the goods — which hit stores Feb. 11 — and Kate elaborates on the first collection and her inspirations (loosely translated from French):

The emerald green pochette, whose color I love, I wanted to be very simple, based on the shape of an envelope. I would wear it with all black or all navy. Because I love to wear dove grey, I wanted a bag in that color to go with my grey jeans. The zebra was inspired by an old pony printed valise from the '70s that my boyfriend [Jamie Hince] brought back from San Francisco, very dry, very trashed, without any glamour, and which I loved. As for the bags in cognac leather, it's a color and a very supple leather that we found in equestrian accessories stores, and we unfortunately can no longer find.
