Biography

Cara Jocelyn Delevingne was born on 12 August 1992 in London, Belgravia, the third of three sisters: Poppy, also a model and actress, and Chloe. The girl even boasts noble ancestry on her mother's side, related to the Faudel-Phillips barons.

Cara's zodiac sign, Leo, well reflects her liveliness and her desire to show off. She immediately followed in the footsteps of her sister Poppy Delevingne, starting her modeling career at 17. He abandons his studies and signs a contract with Storm Model Management. Her first appearance as a model was due to a photo published in “Love magazine“; his career from that moment became a rapid rise to success.

Delevingne paraded for the big names in international fashion: Versace, Chanel, Fendi, Burberry and was elected Model of the Year at the British Fashion Awards for two years - in 2012 and 2014. Furthermore, in 2014, the protest fashion show created by Karl Lagerfeld for Chanel also opened during Paris Fashion Week.

The supermodel retired from the catwalks in 2015. The reason for this farewell was first and foremost that of wanting to dedicate herself to acting (Delevingne began her career as an actress in parallel in 2012), but the very young Cara has never denied the physical complexes that her activity as a top model has created for her. In 2016, Madame Tussauds in London honored her with a wax statue.
