Blonde bunny! The highly-anticipated Playboy 60th anniversary issue, featuring world-famous supermodel Kate Moss on its cover, is out — and in it, she strips down and reveals the hot body that catapulted her into the arena of ’90s icons.
On the cover, Moss, 39, wears a skintight black leotard, Saint Laurent pumps and a fluffy, white snowball of a tail as she is tastefully shot from the backside. Her toned physique is accentuated as she stretches to her left with her arms elegantly cuffed, as the super gives a smoldering stare over her shoulder. The 18-page editorial, which was shot by fashion photographers Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott, includes several topless images of Moss — as well as a full-frontal nude shot.
In one, the married mother of one wears nothing but two flashy pieces of jewelry, as she drapes her right hand across her chest. Another shot includes the model, topless, in a pair of retro black bunny ears, staring into the camera lens with her sultry cat eyes peeking out from behind a face mask.
This is not the first time the face of Burberry and Rimmel has stripped down during her 25-year modeling career. Moss recently posed naked for Versace’s Vunk fall 2013 collection ad campaign, hiding her slim figure behind several strategically-placed bags. As Us Weekly previously reported, she also stripped down in May 2013 to promote St. Tropez self-tanning products. However, this does not mean Jamie Hince‘s wife is comfortable flaunting her naked figure. “I never felt comfortable about it,” she told Vanity Fair back in December 2012 of her nudity in previous spreads. “I hated my boobs! Because I was flat-chested. And I had a big mole on one,” she said.
Nude or not, the world-famous model discussed with Playboy how different her life would have been had she not been discovered back in the ’80s. “I was, like, a child when I started. I was 14,” she said. “If it hadn’t happened, I don’t know what would have happened to me. I would be in Croyden [the neighborhood south of London where she grew up], working in a bar, probably.” She added, “As soon as I was given a chance I took it.”
Other supermodels who have previously bared all for Playboy include other ’90s icons like Claudia Schiffer in 1997 and Naomi Campbell in 1999. The January/February 2014 double issue featuring Moss hits stands on Friday, Dec. 6.
