Kate Moss snapped up by Topshop

Fashion chain Topshop has announced a major partnership with Kate Moss. But instead of wearing their garments, the controversial model will be designing them.

Reportedly earning more now than before her much publicised drugs scandal, Moss said: "I have always been a big fan of Topshop and regularly shop there. I love what they stand for and am very excited at the thought of working with them."

Topshop owner Philip Green added: "Kate has a unique position as a true fashion icon and I look forward to helping develop "Kate Moss for Topshop" into a global brand."

Her first collection, to be created alongside Topshop's in house design team, is expected to be released in April next year.
