In 1993 Day was commissioned by British Vogue editor Alexandra Shulman to photograph Kate Moss and her other sitters for the March issue cover shoot and main fashion story. The shoot and cover of Kate was met with huge praise. Later that year Day was commissioned for an intended lingerie fashion shoot for British Vogue that took place in Kate Moss’s own flat in West London. The images appeared to have a documentary feel about them and when published caused a media scandal, with the world’s press claiming the images to be ‘hideous and exploitative’, labeling them as ‘child pornography’ and ‘heroin chic’.
Retreating from fashion work in the wake of the ‘heroin chic’ debate, Day spent much of her personal time over the next seven years taking photographs for her first book, ‘Diary’, a personal visual record of her life and friends, including Tara St Hill and the band, Pusherman with whom she toured America. The book is by turns both bleak and frank, but it is also a tender, poetic and honest chronicle of young lives.
Kruse Verlag published ‘Diary’ in 2000. This body of work was exhibited at The Photographers' Gallery in London in the same year.
