Kate Moss continues her never-ending return to the top of the celebrity ladder by also fronting the exhibition at the National Portrait Gallery called, "the Face of Fashion. The last the day to see the extraordinary exhibition at the National Portrait Gallery in London curated by Susan Bright is May 28th. The Face of Fashion focuses on the portraits of five outstanding fashion photographers from Europe and America: Mert Alas & Marcus Piggott, Corinne Day, Steven Klein, Paolo Roversi and Mario Sorrenti. Many of the 120 portraits include those originally produced for fashion houses, while some were commissioned for magazines such as Vanity Fair and Pop. Fashion surrounds us... its place in our society is undeniable. There have been many other exhibitions about the fashion field but this is the first time the focus is on portraiture. In the contemporary fashion world, models, actors, musicians and designers frequently swap places. The exhibition highlights the relationship between fashion and celebrity and illustrates the extraordinary intimacy that often develops between photographer and subject. "This is a look at the way we see things by taking these images out of the context of magazines and putting them in a gallery"
