Kate Moss’ Best-Ever Glastonbury Outfits—And Where to Shop Them

It’s hard to overstate the impact Kate Moss’ wardrobe has had on millennials like me. Just yesterday, for example, I was browsing Gimaguas’ new pop-up on Greek Street, minding my own business, when I drifted past a whisper of a dress that instantly recalled Mossy’s lurex micro-mini—the one she styled with a black leather belt studded with the word “Glastonbury” (iconic!) and muddy Hunter wellies. And just like that, I had to have it. Suddenly, that otherwise minimalist crochet dress felt like a slice of fashion history. And since I’m heading to Glastonbury this year, I saw no reason not to buy it—bank balance be damned!

Rockstar girlfriend, Britpop muse, boho babe—whatever the era, Kate Moss has always embodied the quintessential Glastonbury-goer. This is a woman who has trotted around Worthy Farm in heels—high heels—prompting my friends and me to ask, “Should we pack stilettos for a famously muddy festival that spans acres of rolling Somerset countryside?” Regina George may have inspired girls to cut peep-holes into their tank tops, but Kate Moss made pin-thin heels at a music festival feel not only possible, but aspirational.

Tassels and tailoring, micro shorts and muddy wellies, leather and lurex—Kate Moss’ Glasto style might be idiosyncratic, but it’s never chaotic, but that’s not to say she sticks to a strict dress code, either.

Here, we revisit some of Kate Moss’ most iconic Glastonbury outfits of all time—and where to shop Mossy-approved staples today.

First up: the aforementioned itsy-bitsy burnt gold dress. Destined to live on ‘festival fashion’ Pinterest boards till time immortal, this will go down as one of Kate Moss’ most iconic outfits of all time. Comprising a few of the model’s hallmarks—leather, gold, studs—it’s hard to imagine anyone else in this outfit and yet, year after year, countless Kate Moss acolytes (complimentary) try.

2005 was a legend-cementing year for Kate Moss as this outfit—from the first day of the festival—proves. For years, rumours swirled that the model was wearing a pair of (then-boyfriend) Pete Doherty’s boxers, but she recently told Vogue that they were, in fact, Alexander McQueen hot pants, natch.

The year was 2007: The Who, The Arctic Monkeys and The Killers played, and Kate Moss and Pete Doherty were the generation’s Keith Richards and Anita Pallenberg. Looking every inch the supermodel rockstar girlfriend, she paired vinyl skinny pants and a batwing blouse with heeled boots, naturally.

It’s not all black leather and studs, as this 2003 outfit proves. Enter ballet slipper pink and the most inventive use of a bandana since Carrie inexplicably turned her Hermès scarf into an arm cuff.

Another Glastonbury, another outing for these heeled knee boots.

Simply iconic.
