Kate Moss, Victoria Beckham Crowned ‘Fashion Royalty’ In Sunday Times Style (PHOTOS)
By The Huffington Post News Editors
It’s easy to confuse one who graces best-dressed lists with a royal: Both are elegant, stylish and have that certain air of regality. Fortunately, The Sunday Times’ Style Magazine has decided to take this concept to a new level.
In an effort to create buzz for its forthcoming 2013 Best-Dressed List, the UK publication has given Kate Moss, Victoria Beckham and more style stars the crowns they deserve. The campaign, created by Grey London to promote the list, portrays the contenders as iconic British monarchs.
Ms. Moss is featured with white hair, pearls and a crown à la Queen Elizabeth II in her Chris Levine-lensed portrait. Beckham, quite fittingly, takes on the role of Queen Victoria, while Tinie Tempah looks like a dapper King Louis XVI of France. Needless to say, the concept is “fashion royalty.”
