They say fashions always come around again - and now Kate Moss is to wear and auction off an exact replica of the dress she wore more than a decade ago to woo Johnny Depp.

The dress, a vintage 1920s flapper dress, was first worn by the 33-year-old when she met Depp in New York in 1994.

Now an exact copy of the dress has been made and will be worn by Kate to the Fashion Rocks charity gala event.

It will then be auctioned off at Topshop's central London store. There will also be just 500 copies on sale for £250.

According to the Mail on Sunday, the Croydon-born model had kept the dress under her bed in a box.

When asked for ideas for the gala in June, Kate came up with the dress under her bed.

The replica, unlike the original, is adorned with 60,000 Swarovski crystal glass pieces.

Topshop boss Sir Philip Green told the Mail on Sunday: "The dress is made and Kate tried it on yesterday.

"I saw it on her - it's sensational."
