Kate Moss Throws Herself Into LFW, With Parties, Celeb Pals, & Mulberry

Kate Moss wrapped up her bikini time in Ibiza and headed back to London yesterday.

Kate Moss wrapped up her bikini time in Ibiza and headed back to London yesterday. She didn't need much time to acclimate to being home after the flight. She and her husband, Jamie Hince, put on their party clothes to hit the town during the tail end of London Fashion Week. Kate went to the Serpentine Gallery for the Future Contemporaries bash, where Jamie performed with his band, The Kills. Other celebs like Princess Eugenie, Liberty Ross, One Direction's Harry Styles, and Kelly Osbourne attended as well. Kelly's boyfriend, Matthew Mosshart, was there, too — his sister Alison is Jamie's bandmate in The Kills. Kelly had a great time, and tweeted a photo of herself and Kate with the caption, "I had the best night catching up with Miss Moss and watching The Kills at the Serpentine!" Kate and Jamie wrapped up their evening at an afterparty held at Loulou's members club.

Despite their late one, Kate was out this morning for the Spring 2013 Mulberry show. She had a seat in the front row near Lana Del Rey, Rebecca Hall, Alexa Chung, and Gillian Anderson. Downton Abbey was also well represented at the presentation, with Joanna Froggatt and Elizabeth McGovern on hand to see creative director Emma Hill's latest.

Alexa Chung to Launch Her Own Label

Alexa Chung has confirmed that she's working on her very own clothing line.



Alexa Chung has confirmed that she's working on her very own clothing line.

"Yes, I'm definitely going to do that," Chung said when Numéro Tokyo asked her about the idea in an interview for its September issue. "I'm looking into it right now."

A spokesperson for Chung later confirmed the plan for the line to Vogue UK, but offered no other information. Though the line is in its infancy, Chung told Numéro Tokyo she's committed to creating it herself.

"I've got nothing to lose, it's a bit of fun," Chung said. "In this current era of celebrity no one believes you actually design the stuff anyway, even though I sketch everything myself. So if it sucks I can say I had nothing to do with it, and if it's really good I can say 'Here are the drawings, it's all my own work!'"
