By now we all know about the cover treatment that Kate Moss is getting in the September issue of Vanity Fair. That includes an eight-page story and photo spread headlined "The Silent Beauty." What's getting lost in the shuffle is that Moss happens to be appearing in a slew of fashion ads that get prominent placement in that very same issue. (It's got to be a coincidence, right?) The ads include a four-page Calvin Klein fold out showing a barebacked Kate and a David Yurman spread that has her lying on a furry rug, naked. Maybe there's hope for Mel. Advertising Age has the pictorial. Note: I'm running out of brain cells, folks. Brother Roderick posted much the same news in an earlier post.
