"Then finally I said, 'Okay, well, I want to know all the details. I want creative input. I want to be consulted. I want to know what they're doing and who's involved. And I want to see the space.' So they took me to see it, and then I realized it was major! All these red flags on the Rue de Rivoli with my name on them right by the Louvre!"
About this Quote
The subtext is a familiar fashion-industry inversion: you're "the brand", but you're rarely the decision-maker. Moss isn't asking for power in abstract terms; she's asking for the basics of agency: details, consultation, creative input, visibility of the literal space. That last request, "I want to see the space", is telling. It's tactile, skeptical, almost street-smart - an insistence on reality in an ecosystem that runs on mood boards, promises, and controlled mystique.
Then comes the pivot: "and then I realized it was major!" The exclamation lands like a laugh of disbelief, a flash of the old Kate Moss mythology - accidental icon, perpetually surprised by her own scale. The image of "red flags... with my name on them" is deliciously double-edged. Flags are celebration, but they're also warnings; Moss even tees it up with "red flags" before converting them into proof of arrival. On the Rue de Rivoli, by the Louvre, it's not just fame. It's institutional placement: the modeling persona elevated into public monument, and Moss wise enough now to demand a say in the scaffolding.
