Ellie Bamber Embodies Kate Moss in New Film
17 Apr
Summary
- Actress Ellie Bamber wears genuine Kate Moss clothing in a new film.
- The film depicts the relationship between Kate Moss and artist Lucian Freud.
- Freud's naked portrait of a pregnant Moss sold for £3.5 million.
Actress Ellie Bamber is set to portray supermodel Kate Moss in the forthcoming film "Moss And Freud." The trailer reveals Bamber wearing authentic pieces from Moss's extensive wardrobe, including outfits from iconic 1990s fashion shows and events. These include a Vivienne Westwood ensemble, a black halterneck mini dress worn in 1995, and Moss's distinctive Union Jack jacket from a 1992 John Galliano show.
The film, scheduled for release on May 29, explores the profound and often intense bond between Kate Moss and the late artist Lucian Freud. Derek Jacobi stars as Freud, who, in 2002, painted a nude portrait of Moss while she was pregnant with her daughter Lila. Their collaboration spanned nine months of late-night sessions.
The resulting artwork, a testament to their creative partnership, achieved a remarkable sale price of £3.5 million at Christie's. The film aims to capture the depth of this artistic endeavor and the complexities of their relationship, as suggested by dramatic exchanges in the trailer.
