Kate Moss in Couture for Vogue Japan (NSFW)

Ending the week on something something.

We'd like to say "Let's end the week on a little pretty," but that may be overstating it. It goes in and out of fashion to declare Kate Moss a whole lot of nothing, but we always thought she was a very good - and occasionally great - model. For this editorial, she seems to be giving it some effort, but doesn't seem to have anything to play off. It's a strange set of images. She's trying to be intense and the clothes are gorgeous, but the posing, lighting, styling, and backdrop are all murky, flat and dull. We're just not feeling this one. One of the world's top models in hundreds of thousands of dollars' worth of couture, posing for Vogue and this is what it looks like?
