Lila Moss showcased a stunning custom gown and ethereal hairstyle at the 2026 Met Gala, inspired by art and her mother's influence.
Not much challenged the orthodoxy of glamour in fashion and decor through the 1980s. Proliferating glossy magazines celebrated revived couture, promoted luxury goods and displayed them on perfect human specimens in ideal settings. They did not care for, or cater to, the young, poor or inventive. Youthful street daywear was not their business. But there was another magazine world notably the Face and i-D which had come out of music and pop culture.
The new film Moss & Freud opens with Kate Moss (Ellie Bamber) hurtling down the motorway, cigarette in hand, blond hair whipped back, redoing her lipstick in the rear-view mirror like a Hitchcockian anti-heroine. When sirens peal behind her and the police pass, Moss cackles. This sequence establishes the film's fixation as being on the model and unlikely, one-time muse of Lucian Freud (here Derek Jacobi), rather than on the artist. Sadly, it has little to say about either subject-or Freud's self-proclaimed search for "truth"
