Supermodel Kate Moss is the perfect advertisement for anti-algorithm style—she has a well-honed personal aesthetic, which will never be influenced by a viral TikTok trend or be tempted by a fleeting It item. The key to having timeless personal style is having a few signature pieces that are very you and only get better with age. Moss has been wearing the same hero items for decades—ballet pumps, velvet blazers, leopard-print coats, vintage floral tea dresses, and black stilettos are as much a part of her wardrobe now as they were back in her Topshop days.
In 2005, Moss wore a velvet blazer with white jeans to a gig in Brixton.
Despite her outfits being copied again and again, she doesn’t feel the need to experiment with new outfit formulas. And why should she? Over the past few months, Moss has worn outfits that she has relied on since the '90s. One of her trusted hero pieces is a velvet jacket, and power blazers (often realized in velvet) have been key to Anthony Vaccarello’s vision at Saint Laurent. It was therefore fated that she wore a vampy black smoking jacket (with a touch of sparkle on the lapel) to the most recent Saint Laurent front row in Paris. Then, in daylight hours, she wore another black velvet blazer over a vintage-floral maxi dress with knee-high boots—an outfit that is textbook Kate Moss. She might have left some of her partying behind in the '00s and founded a wellness brand called Cosmoss, but with her velvet tailoring and deep-seated love of leopard print, she still dresses like a rock star.

Style Notes: For the Saint Laurent front row, Kate wore an all-black look with a velvet tuxedo jacket with beading on the collar. The gold cuffs add extra glamour.
Style Notes: Kate shows that velvet blazers aren't just after-dark heroes. She wore her jacket over another Moss staple, a wafty maxi dress in a vintage floral print.
Style Notes: This outfit is textbook Kate Moss. She often adds one statement leopard piece to an otherwise simple, classic ensemble.
Style Notes: A black scarf has always been part of Moss's "I'm with the band" aesthetic. The red flecks on her blazer add an extra dimension to her black tailoring.
