>> Kate Moss is supposed to have her big announcement tomorrow, but she had a pretty big announcement today, too: Her eight sell-out collections have earned her another three years of designing for Topshop.

Sir Phillip Green, who earlier this year credited Topshop's record sales to the "Kate effect," reiterated his belief in Kate: "Having had two years experience, I am confident that Kate’s collection now has the potential to become a significant global brand within Topshop."  Although he hasn't yet granted Kate's wish to do menswear, she will be expanding future collections into lingerie and accessories.  Her next collection, for Spring 2009, will launch in March, to coincide with Topshop's New York grand opening.
