Back in October, Kate Moss, looking for something to wear to a party hosted by her friend and hairdresser James Brown, grabbed a blouse from the pile of free samples she gets sent by stores and designers, paired it with a grey tweed trouser suit, and went out on the town.
What happened next is not only testament to the supermodel's influence but illustrates how, on the axis of celebrity and fashion, fortunes can turn.
The black chiffon blouse, covered in stars, was from Jaeger, a shop which until recently suffered from the 'MPs' wives and wellies' syndrome; it was associated in the public mind with matronly mothers rather than with renegade daughters. A photo
