I think Kate Moss was a huge inspiration to me in my creative work, especially growing up seeing so much of the Tumblr and fashion blog era and the way she built a connection with the audience through the lens of the camera. There was an emotional impact in the way she was captured that gave me a real education in how an image can feel soft and authentic and honest all at once. She had this melancholy, quiet way of presenting on camera that I have never stopped thinking about. I think that is exactly why designers like Ralph Lauren, Calvin Klein, and Chanel built such iconic work around her. She took the designer’s vision and gave it a feeling, and the collection came out like something you could actually feel. Her early work in the 90s shaped my whole creative process and the way I think about marketing a product through emotion instead of information. Being one of the defining faces of that early 90s era gave her the advantage. The work reads as authentic and almost surreal, and that is the standard I am always trying to reach in my own. #KateMoss #90sFashion #FashionPhotography #CreativeDirection #FashionBlog
