Yikes. Supermodel Kate Moss aid she had to “run away” from a photography shoot for a bra catalog aged about 15 after a man asked her to be topless. The British model, now 48, signed to Storm modeling agency in 1988 and told the BBC Radio 4 programme Desert Island Discs she would go on her own to castings across London, armed with an A to Z book. Here’s what she has to say.
Recounting the incident she said: “I had a horrible experience for a bra catalogue. I was only 15 probably and he said ‘Take your top off’ and I took my top off. And I was really shy then about my body. And he said ‘Take your bra off’ and I could feel there was something wrong so I got my stuff and I ran away. I think it sharpened my instincts. I can tell a wrong ‘un a mile away.”
Kate Moss Says She Was Asked To Go Topless During A Photoshoot When She Was Just A Teen
Moss also spoke about the 1990 shoot that made her famous, but admitted revisiting the memory was “painful.” The late photographer Corinne Day, who Moss often worked with, shot a series of photographs of her for The Face magazine on the beach at Camber Sands, East Sussex, when she was 16.
Moss said: “That scrunched up nose that is on the cover, she would say, ‘Snort like a pig’ to get that picture. And I would be like, ‘I don’t want to snort like a pig’ and she would be like, ‘Snort like a pig, that’s when it looks good’.”
Moss recalled how she had “cried a lot” during the shoot because she did not feel comfortable being “naked.” She said: “I didn’t want to take my top off. I was really, really self-conscious about my body and she would say, ‘If you don’t take your top off I am not going to book you for Elle’ and I would cry. It is quite difficult (to take myself back there). It is painful because she was my best friend and I really loved her – but she was a very tricky person to work with. But you know, the pictures are amazing so she got what she wanted and I suffered for them, but in the end they did me a world of good really. They did change my career.”
