Simon Cowell is reportedly hoping to get supermodel Kate Moss on board to help with styling for next year’s series of the X Factor.

This year’s series has struggled to pull in viewers with ratings slumping to an all time low for the show so Cowell has hinted that a major overhaul could be on the cards.

He wants to seriously shake up the flagging franchise and is hoping that bringing in Kate as style consultant will give the show a fashionable edge.

An insider told The Mirror: "Simon is looking at ways of refreshing the show and one idea he will bring to the table is getting Kate Moss on board.

"He knows how important the styling of the contestants is and having a supermodel and a world-famous name on board would certainly raise the bar."

The source also claimed that Moss would be able to not only style contestants through their time on the show but also "how to look after themselves and still look great in the years ahead".

A spokesperson representing Simon Cowell advised that there were no cast iron plans as yet but that there are going to be meetings held about the show’s future at the end of January and the decisions that are made will be announced shortly after.
