H&M no longer require Kate

[by Michele Obi | 20 September 2005 | 2 Comments| ]

Just as Kate thought she would make it through the storm that is her life right now, H&M Europe�s largest clothing chain, have confirmed they will not be standing by the model as previously claimed. The high street chain has dropped Kate as the face of Stella McCartney’s new line due to be launched on the 10th of November.

Although the model expressed her deep regret and claimed she had dumped Doherty (again), it appears H&M just couldn’t continue its work with her and in a statement the chain said

“H&M will cancel the planned advertising campaign with model Kate Moss.

“H&M is strongly against drugs and for many years has actively supported the drug preventing organisation Mentor Foundation.

“After having evaluated the situation, H&M has decided that a campaign with Kate Moss is inconsistent with H&M’s clear dissociation of drugs.”

Meanwhile amidst further rumours that Kate seduced her PA Rebecca White, and dabbled in lesbian threesomes with Sadie Frost and Davinia Taylor, friends and fashion industry insiders such as Julien MacDonald and Head of the British Fashion Council John Wilson have spoken out in support of the model. According to Channel4 British artist Tracy Emin also commented about all the allegations flying around,

“I just think leave Kate alone, she’s fantastic. She hasn’t done anything wrong to anybody.

“If she dabbles in stuff and she’s a bit of a party person then that’s her business. It doesn’t interfere with her work or looks. Leave Kate alone.”
