Famed fashion photographer Mario Testino is selling a series of life-size Kate Moss portraits at an exhibition held at Phillips de Pury & Co' s London branch, including a number of unseen images of the supermodel. "Kate represents the ultimate kind of woman - an icon of our times," Testino tells Vogue UK. The collection, entitled Kate Who, features 18 iconic shots of the Brit beauty, each enlarged to life-size proportions. Although the auction house refused to comment on prices, Phillips previously sold a Testino photo of Keith Richards and Mick Jagger for a record $75,000, and the Moss snaps could easily fetch as much of not more. The images will be on view and sale through 16 at Phillips and thereafter at the Saatchi Gallery in London.
