Kate Moss is a legendary British model.
Born on 16 January 1974 in Croydon, Greater London, the daughter of Linda Rosina Moss and Peter Edward Moss, and raised in the Addiscombe and Sanderstead areas, she has gone on to appear on hundreds of magazine covers.
Kate Moss has acquired attention for being unusually short for a supermodel; at around 5 feet and 6 inches, she is far below the normal height requirement for a female fashion model (6 feet).
Despite her unconventional height as a model, she is the highest-paid model in the industry. But how much has she raked in?
As of 2022, Kate Moss has an estimated net worth of $70 million, according to Celebrity Net Worth, making her the world’s highest-paid model.

Her net worth dwarfs that of other high-paid models such as Kendall Jenner, and has done for some time; in the 2009 Rich List, she was ranked as the 1,348th richest person in the UK, with a net worth of £40 million at the time.
She has taken home this huge amount of wealth as a result of her successful modelling occupation, together with other business ventures.
She is a longtime Rimmel ambassador, and used to regularly make collaborative fashion lines with British retailer Topshop.
As well as being one of the most important models of all time, Moss has been involved in musical projects.
She may have been pictured in countless magazines, but she’s not too fond of being quoted in them. “I’m so s*** at keeping my mouth shut,” she told Vogue in an interview.

However, Fiona Golfar, the writer who conducted the interview, noted Moss’ “unfailing instinct to say “off the record” the moment she launches into a story.”
Who would have believed that back in 1993 when a 19-year-old girl from Croydon walked on to shoot the cover of Vogue that it would be the first of over 40 (and still counting) British Vogue covers to come?
Kate Moss is a legend in the world of fashion, and she has the riches to prove it.
