"Actors do like watching girls parade down the runway for some reason"
About this Quote
The specific intent feels twofold: to name the backstage reality (actors, celebrities, power-adjacent men) treating fashion shows as a spectator sport, and to puncture the idea that the runway is purely about artistry. Moss frames it as a preference, almost a hobby, which is exactly what makes it sharp. Reducing a system of attention, desire, and status to “like watching” strips away the glamour and leaves the transaction.
The subtext is classically Moss: dry, slightly bored, a little complicit, a little critical. She’s acknowledging how fashion operates as a social marketplace where women are presented and men appraise, network, and perform taste. In the 1990s-to-2000s celebrity-fashion convergence Moss helped define, actors at shows weren’t just fans; they were proof of relevance, cameras, and hierarchy. Her line reads like an aside that accidentally tells the truth.
