latest obsession: Cara Delevingne

This 19 year old British dame is currently the new face of Burberry, the fashion house which also boosted the names of Lily Donaldson and Rose Huntington-Whiteley. She’s recently walked the runway for the industry’s biggest fashion houses which include Jason Wu, Oscar de la Renta, Burberry, and Dolce & Gabbana. Her feline features, heavy thick eyebrows and “just got out of bed” hair is gaining the interest of many designers and adds a bit of edge to any elegant ball gown.

Cara is shorter than the average model (only a petite 5’11), “but, what she lacks in inches, she makes up for in confidence” says Vogue fashion bookings editor, Rosie Vogel. Her sense of humour, bright personality and versatility is what makes her stand out the most, which shows that she also adds something different besides her striking looks.

Cara is set to appear in the 2012 film, Anna Karenina, as Princess Sorokina, alongside Keira Knightely and Jude Law. She is also the cover girl for the latest issue of British Vogue, who also described her as the star face of the season for Autumn/Winter 2012-2013.

With her edgy looks, talent and spunk she adds to the industry, it’s safe to say that Cara Delevingne is well on her way to becoming one of the biggest models in fashion.

from the fashion intern: MBFWA

we are all still buzzing from the most recent fashion event, Mercedes Benz Fashion Week Africa and i had the privilege of working as an intern which is was super amazing! from meeting top designers, models and fittings, being behind the scenes was probably the best experience of my life, especially meeting the incredible Sartorialist, Scott Schuman. African Fashion Week just made me and others (hopefully) realise and understand what a talented continent we are. full of originality with a bit of modern flare. these are my favourite looks from the event :)
