New York shoppers went to great lengths to land their hands on items from the Kate Moss' Topshop range during its first day on sale in New York chain store Barneys.
Desperate customers stripped mannequins in a bid to secure the last of Moss' highly sought after designs, with her floral print dress proving particularly popular.

However, the scenes still did not rival the line's London launch, which drew crowds of more than 1,000 shoppers at Topshop's flagship store in Oxford Street.
In New York, around 150 women queued outside the upmarket department store for up to four hours.
The Madison Avenue store launched 26 pieces from the new collection.
A night earlier, the star drank champagne at the store with invited guests including Sir Philip Green to celebrate the launch.
Despite the constant frenzy surrounding her, Moss insists she's not out of the ordinary, according to The Sun.
She said: "I'm just a normal girl. I'm no different, I may be a little bit taller but that's it."
Of her range, Moss said: "I know what I like to wear and I think it's the kind of taste a lot of other women will like too."
A night before her designs hit shops, Moss arrived at the launch party in a daring sheer dress
