Kate Moss Nudes earn $366,000

Nude photographs of supermodel Kate Moss earned $366,000 at a London auction Thursday.

A six-foot square photograph of a naked Moss, taken by Albert Watson, sold for $108,000 -- five times the amount auction house Christie's had expected.

A 1996 portrait of the catwalk star entitled "Kate Moss (Hand on Neck)" went fetched $76,800, while a 1993 photo of Moss shot by Corinne Day for the cover of fashion magazine Vogue sold for $13,200.

It shows the then 19-year-old model in pants and a pink top, surrounded by fairy lights.

The picture and accompanying Vogue article is said to have "moved grunge into mainstream".

But at $168,000, the highest bid for a Moss original was for a set of six prints of the 33-year-old taken by Chuck Close. The photos were originally estimated to go for only $40,000.

At the time, Miss Moss had not combed her hair, put on any make-up or even looked in the mirror.

"I've had enough pretty pictures made of me," she said. .
