"It sounds really corny but I think that if you're beautiful inside it shows on the outside, for sure."
~ Kate Moss
British supermodel, Kate Moss is known for many things, for her beauty, being graceful, well-proportioned body, being graceful, and even her cheekbones... and last but not least... for her short stature.
Of course, Kate isn't short in the everyday world in fact she is kind of tall -- but for being a supermodel? She is kind of short.
People ask all the time can a 5-feet-6 inches tall girl be a model? Well, Kate Moss is the living proof of that they can be.
Kate's modeling agency once listed her at a more impressive 5-feet-7½ inch but we all know that modeling agencies often exaggerate the height of their clients -- even up to two inches, and unfortunately, from what we have seen of Ms. Moss, she seems to be exactly two inches shorter than her official height.
The real Height of Kate Moss is
5-feet-5½" inches
or 168 cm
