>> Kate Moss a No-Show at Glastonbury; Lily Donaldson There In Her Stead -No Kate Moss at Glastonbury this year - despite rumors otherwise - but Lily Donaldson was there to see Kasabian (after meeting them on a Burberry shoot) and Neil Young in leopard and a fringed bag; Jacquetta Wheeler, Theodora and Alexandra Richards, Valentine Fillol-Cordier, and Eliza Cummings all popped up, too.

Daisy Lowe Pulls a Glastonbury No-No

fashionologie — Fri, 27 Jun 2008 10:51:45 PDT

>> Every year that Kate Moss attends the Glastonbury Festival, she pulls off at least one iconic look; In 2005, it was the low-slung belt, hot pants, and Hunter wellies, and last year, it was the slouchy black top, PVC pants, and muddy stiletto boots (below).

This year's Glastonbury Festival just kicked into gear today, and what do you know . . . Daisy Lowe popped up goofing off for the cameras in a slouchy black top, PVC pants, and muddy wellies. Considering that the fashion flock watches Glastonbury to see what Kate pops up wearing, it's not so smart for an up-and-coming model like Daisy to follow Kate's suit — at the same event — a year later.

Kate Moss Pops In at Glastonbury, Pre-Wedding

fashionologie — Mon, 27 Jun 2011 10:16:43 PDT

>> Kate Moss's nuptials are just days away, but she didn't miss her annual sojourn to the Glastonbury Festival over the weekend; Alexa Chung and Lily Donaldson turned up for the muddy musical festival, too.

Moss reportedly temporarily lost her engagement ring at fiance Jamie Hince's performance and then was turned away from Pulp's surprise set, but the weekend wasn't all bad luck. Moss was snapped with Hamish Bowles on her arm - it seems like he may be getting a headstart on Vogue's coverage of Moss's wedding, which is said to include a Mario Testino-shot cover (for the September 2011 issue) and accompanying feature story.

Kate Moss Launches Longchamp Handbag Collection with a Bang - Lots of Zebra, Too

fashionologie — Thu, 28 Jan 2010 10:29:14 PST

>> Last night to close out couture, Kate Moss held a launch party for her first Longchamp handbag collection at the Ritz Club in Paris. With zebra print everywhere - on the carpet, on the walls - which has become somewhat a signature for the line, featured in both the lining and a scarf that can be tied around the handbag strap, Moss and her silver-streaked hair were joined by the likes of boyfriend (maybe fiance?) Jamie Hince, Maryna Linchuk, Frida Gustavsson, Lauren Santo Domingo, Hamish Bowles, Giovanna Battaglia, Giambattista Valli, and Carine Roitfeld, who coincidentally wore a zebra print coat the day before.

Moss said of the collaboration: "'I've been working with Longchamp for a while - we just get on. It was a fabulous opportunity for me." She named the bags, out Feb. 11, The Glastonbury, after her favorite music festival, The Soho, and The Glouchester - prices start at $155 for a small purse, clutches are $490 to $780, handbags are $780 to $1,700, and weekend bags are $1,290 to $2,500. Already, a video of her campaign shoot has popped up - the ads will run with taglines like "Don't You Wish Your Bag Was Hot As Kate's?," "An Absolute Moss-have," "Kate Is Not A Plastic Bag," and "My Moss Bag Brings All The Boys To The Yard."

just call me the eighth dwarf, greedy.

>> What three things do I want in life (or now, rather)? No silly, not peace, love, and happiness. Try again. You're stumped? Okay fine. I'll give it to you, but just this once.

1. The Pants

I saw this style of pants running around all over Barcelona, and fell deeply, passionately in love. The example picture is from McQueen's Spring 2003 collection, but only because I couldn't get a picture of the ones I saw. They look exactly the same. I know the people I saw wearing them can't all afford vintage McQueen, however, so I want to know... where can you get these pants? Anyone, anyone? I want, but I can't have, because I don't know where to get. And that makes it all the worse. They just look so comfy, and at the same time, I think of a Japanese influence. Which makes it all the cooler. Now if only I could find them, I would be able to die a happy woman.

2. The Shirt

I was looking through a great Japanese Street Style site that I came across, and I found a girl from Harajuku (don't worry, I'm no Gwen Stefani) wearing this lovely lovely Comme des Garcons Play shirt. Again, can't find it anywhere -- it came out a couple of years ago. I think I like it so much because it reminds me of a drawing I did as a kid -- it had little heart people with eyes on them that looked just like that. And to think, if only my parents had had the common sense to put that drawing on a shirt, I might've been a famous at age 5. I'm dreaming, I know, but the point is, the shirt is personal to me. But I'm still so jealous of that girl. She has my shirt.

3. The Waistcoat

Also known as "vest" in the U.S., but I figure since I'm in England, I can take up their terms. Especially when I'm going to mention Miss Kate Moss, the lovely. Who has been spotted at the Glastonbury Festival (and around town) recently wearing this waistcoat. I'm not sure that I would wear mine like she does, but I definitely think this would be a good piece to support the quasi- adrogynous clothing phase I'm going through right now. Plus, just look at her. There's nothing manly about the piece when she wears it. In fact, I would dare to say sensual. (I know, Kate Moss is the embodiment of sensual, but what can I say.) I found a pretty cute one at Urban Outfitters for $78, but I would prefer to find a cool vintage one in London. So we'll see what I can turn up.
