some flexibility. She is rapidly gaining exposure. Her look is
getting better and her work in the Ralph Lauren campaign looks good
in 95'. Recommended that model-wanna'be's stay in school before
modeling. No word if she is actually going to finish high school.

Hicks, Michelle
Michele started modeling at age 15 and got very involved in the NYC club
scene. She was involved with the opening of several clubs (all before her
21st birthday) and was called one of the "downtown diva's" by W in late
1992 (included picture). Her modeling career "took off" when Steven Misel
took a liking to her in early 1993. She has been "on the up" ever since.
Aside from her killer looks and flawless body, Michele's real reason for
success is her winning personality. She is an extremely inteligent
individual and can make just about anyone feel comfortable in her presence.
She quite the presence on the runway curcuit (NY and Paris), has been
interviewed on House of Style and FTV, and frequently shows up in Vogue
(particularly Dolce & Gabana ads). She was born in New Jersey and will

"Demure? Smoky? A little flirtatious? The are the qualities
that have made Kathy Ireland a 10-time Sports Illustrated

declared on national TV that she intends to take up boxing; that
she enjoys fishing at dawn with her dad; or that she is an
incurable practical joker." [Jule Campbell, SI]

Kristen was a fairly normal model, basically just another beautiful
face. However, without any trademark, her career was a disaster.
About a year ago, she cut and dyed her hair, and shaved off her
eyebrows. Since then she's been doing much better. She has been
described as an antimodel, and is typical of the grunge models.
Her Sprite Ad has gotten attention from a group wanting to stop the
glorification of the Waif image. Had a child this past year who
has also appeared in some of her photo shoots. Still working hard.
Moffat, Peggy

Moss, Kate
Height: 5'7"
Measurements: 33-23-35
Weight: 116lb ? (She claims to never weigh herself.)
Born: 16 Jan 74 in Addiscomb, Croydon, Surrey, England
Citizenship: French, for TAX reasons
Earning power: $10000 / day
US Agency: Women Model Management
UK Agency: Storm Model Agency, 1st Floor, 5 Jubilee Place,
London SW3 3TD (tel. +44 1713 767 464)
Favourite Food: Fresh sardines.
One of the more controversial supermodels, primarily because
of her unusually low weight during the early part of her
career. (she typified the "waif" models). Some people feel
she is unattractively thin, and fear idolizing her may cause
anorexia in impressionable teenage girls. However, she also
has a large number of fans, and receives a large number of
modeling jobs.
Her contract with Calvin Klein is supposedly worth over 1
million. Her unusual appearance (and possibly her
willingness to appear nude, "It's just work") have, in a
very short time, made her almost as widely recognized as
Cindy Crawford. She is a little too short and thin to model
clothes designed for the "standard" model's build. This
makes her less versatile and may limit her career's
lifespan. She appeared in an '89 British sexploitation
film "The Inferno". She chain smokes Marlboros. She has
broken with her photographer boyfriend, Mario Sorrenti, and
is currently involved in a 'long term' relationship with
actor, Johnny Depp.
Kate has recently (May 1995) published a hardback picture
book called 'Kate' which is made up of pictures chosen by
herself. This book is published in the UK by Pavilion Books
Limited.
The book reference number is ISBN 1 85793 685X and is
available in the UK from May 95 and is supposedly available
in the US in August 95.
There exists at least two picture series' of JPG images of
Kate, called KATENR##.JPG and also KMOSS###.JPG, both done
by Neil Rodgers with the 'almost' famous 'GAP ON!' logo.
Most of these images and many others are available from WWW
site http://marlowe.wimsey.com/~jamacht/Kate/Pictures/
Kate's favourite designers are John Galliano, Helmut Lang,
Martin Margiela and Vivienne Westwood.
Kate has recently purchased a house in the Sheperds Bush
area of London (May 95)
alt.fan.kate-moss and alt.binaries.kate-moss (sp) either exist or
are being created by her fans to make it easier to find info on her.

Has had at least one appearance on the Arsenio Hall Show. Appeared
in August 1987 Playboy. She's said during an interview that she
unwinds by "playing Nintendo". Modeled almost exclusively for
Estee Lauder. Is married to Ric Ocasek. They have a son, Jonathan
Raven Ocasek, born 4 (14?) Nov 93. Recently wrote a children's book
about the adventures of a Roach in New York. Paulina frequently
criticized the shallowness of the modelling industry and has
mentioned that she is in the process of working on a book about the
industry as she sees it.
Rumored to very active with email, possibly under "Ralphie" as her
psudeonym (from her book "Ralphie the Roach")
Recent appearances on both Leno and Letterman after giving birth to
her son. Since her contract with Estee Lauder has expired, she is
semi-retired. (did she really quit for good?)
Yes. Occasionally she will appear in some editorial shoots; she posed for
Steven Meisel nude 8 months pregnant and appeared on Vogue with her new
baby sometime last year. Acted in a movie "Anna", playing Christina.
The second movie being "*Her* Alibi" with Tom Selleck. She is the
person responsible for term 'supermodel' being in existence (and
everyone on this group will argue that one). She had a six
million a year contract with Estee Lauder in early/mid 80's, and has
numerous appearances in Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue. She did a
topless shoot in the April '84 issue of GQ, which I have never seen,
and can't understand why it hasn't been scanned and posted to the net.
She also appears in the somewhat documentary movie "Portfolio".

"Cool and commanding on the page, Ashley is an incorrigible cutup
between takes, keeping the Swimsuit shoot loose and relaxing
tensions. As creative as she is funny, Ashley enjoys such off-camera
pastimes as painting, interior decorating and cooking. You may also
detect the ballerina in Ashely from her fluid poses and her graceful
lines, which extend naturally from her warm personallity."
