Kate Moss Swarovski Dress For Sale

Just in case you have some money for a dress with 60,000 crystal beads lying around, Kate Moss wants to sell you one. She's put her Fashion Rocks Swarovski Topshop dress on eBay:

Behold! THE dress that Kate Moss wore to Swarovski Fashion Rocks for The Prince's Trust on Thursday 18th October 2007. Created by Kate Moss and Topshop, the design is based on a 1920s original flapper's dress from Kate's personal collection.

Dripping with 60,000 Swarovski crystal beads of silver, dove grey and antique green, it is covered with looping tassels that shimmer as the dress moves. Typically Kate, this dress achieves knock-out glamour without the ostentatious fuss seen too often on the red carpet.

Designed by Kate and the Topshop design team, it was hand-beaded by Hand and Lock – couture embroiderers who have used a specialised and rare kind of beading technique called tamber to create this stunning fluidity.

Kate Moss says of this dress:

"When I was invited by Swarovski to create a dress with Topshop to wear to Swarovski Fashion Rocks for The Prince’s Trust, this 1920's flapper style immediately came to mind. It has been a major inspiration for my autumn winter designs for Topshop and just felt perfect. I'm honoured to have the opportunity to raise cash for The Prince's Trust, as it's great cause. Plus, I get to wear my own amazing couture dress' – even if it's just for the night!"

Bids start at about $4100.
