Kate Moss is the new face of 'Longchamp'

Supermodel Kate Moss's flagging career has been given yet another boost, with famous French house Longchamp announcing the catwalk star as the new the face of both its spring-summer 2006 and its autumn-winter 2006-2007 campaigns.

Moss's career suffered a huge loss after a British newspaper published pictures of her snorting cocaine in September this year. But, Longchamp's managing director Jean Cassegrain has reportedly shown confidence in the troubled star, and is convinced that Moss would do justice to the prestigious label.

"Despite her personal issues which have been extensively covered in the press, Kate remains by far the most famous and admired model in the world. She continues to be on the cover of the most respected fashion magazines and she has become an icon of our time.

Her international image will allow us to reach a new dimension and our partnership with her makes us one of the few fashion brands that count," Femalefirst quoted him as saying.

The 31 year old was photographed by Mario Sorrenti for the advertising campaign in New York last week. She has also completed an ad campaign for Roberto Cavalli and has appeared on the front cover of Vanity Fair and W magazine.
