The customers at Barneys store in New York were angry when they saw that the garments were tagged at very high prices.
The American prices are reportedly as high as 100 dollars.
However, Top Shop spokeswomen has justified it claiming that the transport charges compel the company to raise the price, but this has surprised people more as most of the garments are made overseas in India, China and Mauritius.
"It is slightly more expensive in the US because it is being shipped from the UK but it is amazingly good value for Barneys, who determine the pricing," the spokeswomen said.
Moss has been getting mixed reviews for her new clothesline, but there has been frenzy among fans to grab the clothes designed by the style icon.
According to store's creative director Simon Doonan, the high prices have not stopped the customers from grabbing Moss' clothes.
"This is a level of competitive shopping that even New Yorkers have not encountered before," Daily Mail quoted Doonan, as saying.
Customers wore "as little as possible to be able to try on loads of things really quickly and get in and out of the dressing room and back on the floor to snatch things before another girl does," he added.
