Interview with Kate Moss.

On Thursday, October 29th, Topshop + Kate Moss will unveil her Christmas '09 Collection that will include her first Nightwear line of oriental silks and prints. Kate gives her thoughts on fondness of pajamas.

via Topshop Interview with Kate.
What inspired you to create a nightwear collection? I love beautiful nightwear, it makes you feel great. Over the years, I've collected millions of vintage slips, nighties, camies and bed jackets. Who doesn't want fab nightwear for Christmas!?

How did you go about designing the collection? I just dreamt up what I wanted in my wardrobe, I've very much approached my collection like this over the past couple of years. There are some great basics like the fish net set (which I love) and it develops into some really chic vintage style chiffon teddys which I just couldn't find anywhere. I used some of my favourite prints from previous collections like the vintage rose and the swarms of butterflies from my last collection.



Describe your favourite pieces in the collection... I love the short 30's style dressing gown and the matching night dress. That sounds frumpy; it's more like a slip! It has a new butterfly print which was influenced by the oriental feeling that dominates the new collection. I was inspired by one of my favourite vintage pieces and it's perfect for the getting ready pasrt of the evening. It's a glamorous pre-outfit or a super glamorous lounging look!



Will you be wearing your favourites out of the house? Yes, but I plan to have clothes over the top! I have gone out in PJ's before. I remember very distinctly being stuck in a snow storm in New York wearing pyjamas - that was hilarious! I might wear some of the PJ tops out as a layer, instead of a shirt, but probably not as a set.



Will you mix, or match your underwear sets? It's important to me that my knickers and bra are in the same 'world', the same 'story'. They don't have to match - clashing is also great - but if I change my outfit I always change my underwear so it fits the mood.
