Kate Moss (the model) cut a gorgeous figure as she posed in front of Kate Moss (the artwork) - ahead of the Christie's auction taking place later this month.
Mossy looked stunning as ever in a shiny pale silver suit with bootcut trousers which she teamed with a pale grey tee, chunky leather belt and delicate jewellery as she posed in front of the works encompassing Kate Moss: The Collection.
The supermodel's most iconic shoots are being auctioned off at the world-renowned auction house in London on 25 September, and artists featured include Mario Sorrenti, Allen Jones, Nick Knight, Mario Testino, Irving Penn, Annie Leibovitz, Mary McCartney, Craig McDean, Sam Taylor-Wood, Juergen Teller, Ellen von Unwerth and Albert Watson.
This auction certainly cements Kate's status as a living icon, which she recently celebrated in Tokyo with Louis Vuitton at the French fashion house's Timeless Muses exhibition (yep, she's also timeless).
Auction curator Gert Elfering has said of the model:
'Kate is the ultimate modern muse and we will be seeing her images in major museums and private collections for years to come.
'She has altered perceptions for women across the globe, encouraging them towards greater individuality and expressive freedom.
'There is so much you can learn from Kate – how you should always remain true to yourself, develop your own style, and emphasise your individuality.'
And now the question is - how much will people pay for a piece of the icon?
