Kate Moss is the new creative director of Diet Coke
What's more 90s than a supermodel drinking a can of Diet Coke? To mark its 40th anniversary, Diet Coke has tapped British supermodel Kate Moss as its creative director, starting with its somewhat vague campaign called 'Love What You Love' featuring Kate, highlighting the importance of embracing what you’re passionate about. “I am thrilled to join the Diet Coke family I love the past collaborations they’ve done with such incredible names in fashion,” Moss says in a statement.
“As creative director, I’m looking forward to inspiring fans and celebrating the brand’s 40th birthday in style.”
Joining past coke (as in the fizzy drink) ambassadors such as Marc Jacobs, Karl Lagerfeld and Jean-Paul Gaulthier, all we can say is watch this space as more and more brands start tapping high-profile names to become 'creative directors'.

Polo Ralph Lauren revealed its new uniforms for Wimbledon's coterie of on-court officials including chair umpires, line umpires, ball boys and girls. Taking place until this Sunday July 10, the brand delivers another preppy range as it has been for the past 17 years, this time combining the brand's heritage with innovative fabrics like recycled material that incorporates stretch, moisture-wicking properties and UV protection.
Chair umpires will be particularly smart wearing a belted back sportscoat lined with a commemorative Ralph Lauren-designed signature Wimbledon print adorned with both Polo Ralph Lauren and Wimbledon emblems.
“Given our organisation’s commitment to be Environment Positive by 2030, it is fantastic to see Polo Ralph Lauren is prioritising environmental sustainability in the production of the on-court uniforms for Wimbledon," said Gus Henderson, commercial director at Wimbledon, in a statement.
Ana De Armas as Marilyn Monroe
2022 has been a hotbed for pop culture transformations we've had Lily James as Pamela Anderson, Jessica Chastain as televangelist Tammy Faye Baker, Kristen Stewart as Princess Diana, Nicole Kidman as comedic icon Lucille Ball, and, more recently, Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling as Barbie and Ken. But now, Ana De Armas revealed she spent three hours in hair and makeup to be transformed into Hollywood icon Marilyn Monroe.
Coming to Netflix this September, Blonde is based off the Joyce Carol Oates novel of the same name, and it's rumoured each scene is based off on an existing photograph of the star. De Armas dons Monroe’s signature red lip, beauty mark and platinum blonde curls in the official trailer, which speaks to the inner turmoil the troubled starlet faced.
