Kate Moss And Ellie Bamber Turn Heads At 'Moss & Freud' Premiere

The Red Carpet Moment

Playing the legendary Kate Moss is no small feat, but Ellie Bamber appears ready for her close-up. The actress has gotten the ultimate nod of approval from Moss herself, as the duo graced the red carpet together for the premiere of Moss & Freud. The film, which chronicles the nine-month process of British artist Lucian Freud painting a portrait of Moss, showcased both women in an electric red carpet moment.

Tonight's event at the London Film Festival saw Moss and Bamber looking like mirror images of each other. Bamber, known for her role in Nocturnal Animals, embraced the '90s vibe in a strapless body-con dress with a sheer overlay—reminiscent of Moss's iconic sheer dress, minus the NSFW flair. Moss opted for a classic look with a twist, sporting a crisp white shirtless suit, her signature style choice.

Inside the Film and Fashion

Joining them on the red carpet was Derek Jacobi, who plays Freud in the film. Moss & Freud is a dramatized take on Moss’s decision to pose nude for Freud while pregnant with her daughter Lila in 2002. This collaboration resulted in a celebrated portrait that later sold for $5 million at Christie’s. Moss maintains a close relationship with Freud’s daughter, designer Bella Freud, highlighting the lasting personal connections from this project.

“After watching The Phone Call, I knew James would convey the emotion in a fitting way. I am thrilled to see the film come to life,” Moss shared.

Moss is not only the movie’s inspiration but also serves as an executive producer, ensuring her vision is authentically represented. Directed by James Lucas, the film includes costumes from Moss’s own wardrobe, such as her John Galliano Union Jack coat and a sequined gown from her 30th birthday festivities.

A Celebrated Collaboration

As the film delves into the nuances of Moss’s artistic collaboration with Freud, it also highlights her role in the fashion and entertainment industries. This project, infused with nostalgia and innovation, promises to offer a captivating glimpse into a pivotal moment in Moss’s life and career, artfully portrayed by Bamber.
