Kate Moss, 50, leaves nothing to the imagination in racy age inclusive fashion campaign as British catwalk icon goes topless for Yves Saint Laurent
Inclusivity and diversity are the order of the day in a new Yves Saint Laurent campaign featuring legendary supermodel Kate Moss at her provocative best.
The fashion icon, who celebrated her 50th birthday in January, goes topless as she stars alongside a handful of generation-mixed models in the couture label’s latest advert.
The glossy 74-second commercial artfully blends past and present with standout performances from British legend Charlotte Rampling, 78, a former poster girl for swinging 1960s London, and contemporary American catwalk model Binx Walton, 28.
Additional cameos are provided by Canadian star Awar Odhiang, 26, Polish catwalk veteran Anja Rubik, 41, rising German model Penelope Ternes, 21, and South Sudanese model Ajus Samuel Kengen.
But it’s Kate who takes center stage for Saint Lauren and a new campaign from art and fashion photographer Juergen Teller for their winter 2024 womenswear collection.

Moss is back in the Saint Laurent fold after making her catwalk debut for lingerie brand Victoria’s Secret alongside her daughter Lila, 21, in October.
The show marked her first time on the runway since 2022, when she appeared on the catwalk for Bottega Veneta.
Former Vogue Paris editor-in-chief Emmanuelle Alt was brought on board to style the 2024 show and it was her involvement in the show that convinced Moss to take part for the first time.
The star told Vogue: ‘She is one of my favorite stylists. Whatever she does will be cool. She has such beautiful eyes, so I felt safe.”
As she walked the catwalk, she added: ‘It’s fun and exciting, but I still get nervous.
“It’s just on such a huge scale. Of course, when I was doing shows all the time, I didn’t even think about it; we just did back-to-back shows on the same day.
‘Now it’s so different, [the girls arrive] eight hours for a hair and makeup show.”

Fans called the mother/daughter duo who modeled together “iconic” — although some gave Lila the dreaded “fake baby” title on social media.
“KATE MOSS WE’RE IN THE MF 90S,” a user named Jack the Queen tweeted, and his followers wholeheartedly agreed.
X users (formerly Twitter) called the supermodel ‘iconic’, said they were ‘obsessed’ with her appearance, and described it as a ‘full-circle’ moment.

Many called it Kate’s ‘comeback’, although the English supermodel is still a fixture at fashion week and is often spotted with her daughter.
Fans were happy because Lila Moss walked in the same show and flocked to the Victoria’s Secret Instagram comments section to celebrate.
‘Kate and Lila on the same show? and US at that? ICONIC,” one person raged, as VS replied: “Surprise!”
