Cover photo for The Face

Corinne Day captured Kate Moss as the model in an eight-page fashion story for The Face (magazine) in July 1990. The story showcased garments by Gigli, Joseph Tricot, Ralph Lauren, and a feather head-dress from the now-defunct Covent Garden boutique World. The photographs, which include one depicting Moss topless and another in which it is implied that she was naked, are some of the first published fashion photographs of Moss, who was sixteen at the time.
It was the start of Kate Moss career, discovered by Corinne Day.
