In Russian, her name sounds somewhat threatening, you know the expression “heavenly punishment”? But translated from Italian the name of the famous model is “dear”. Very nice, isn't it? On the day of the 23rd birthday of the now British actress and supermodel Cara Delevingne, facts about her will be the subject of our conversation.
"Catch" Dukas
Model agent-scout Sarah Dukas has several “discoveries” in the world of High Fashion. One of them is the unfading Kate Moss, the other is Kate’s compatriot Cara Delevingne.
Unlike her lanky colleagues, Kara is not that tall - only 176 cm. Another “special” feature of the fashion model is her recognizable eyebrows - wide and thick, they can only compete with the eyebrows of the American Lily Collins.
Delevingne has been passionate about music since childhood (she writes, sings and knows how to play a “non-female” instrument - drums), and she is also an avid gamer (it can be difficult to drag a girl away from a new video game).
"Over-galloped" the sisters
The beauty's sisters, Chloe and Poppy, are also models, but they failed to achieve Kara's fame.
The Delevingnes are relatives, albeit very distant ones, of Princess Diana, and their grandmother was a lady-in-waiting to the sister of the now reigning queen, the rebellious Princess Margaret.
Beautiful "monster"
Interesting fact: Cara Delevingne, despite the warnings of her agents, loves to decorate herself with tattoos. For example, on the right hand you can read the girl’s initials, and on the index finger a lion “settled” (it was he who was the “first swallow” that appeared at the beginning of 2013). Probably, the choice for the tattoo was not accidental: she is a Leo according to the horoscope. Kara thinks her tattoos are “cool.”
Perseverance, hard work, a fanatical desire to achieve her goal - for this she is highly respected in the modeling business, but her family calls her “our monster” (jokingly, of course).
Kara's childhood dreams - she dreamed of a career... as a superhero or, in extreme cases, as a dentist (a strange combination).
The very best!
The model was included in the list of the American edition of Vogue as the most stylish in the fashion industry (among people under 45 years old).
Another fact - Cara Delevingne is one of the fifty modern supermodels on the planet; most recently she occupied 17th position in it.
Cara is sociable and has many friends, but the best are Rihanna and Rita Ora.
Heroine of coloring books and films
Artist Mel Simmons Elliott has an unusual hobby - he makes coloring books with the “participation” of stars. So Kara became the heroine of one of his coloring books.
Famous British actress Joan Collins is the model's godmother.
Since the beginning of her modeling career, Delevingne dreamed of acting in films. She was not approved for the role of Alice in Burton's fairy tale, but she appeared in Anna Karenina, playing a charming aristocrat. Now she already has several works to her credit; the drama “Paper Towns” is currently in theaters. And the most interesting thing (the Suicide Squad comic book) is yet to come.
Loves meat, Hendrix and Monroe
Despite the vegetarian “fashion” among celebrities, Kara does not want to give up meat. But she is indifferent to fish.
Family and childhood of Cara Delevingne
Cara was born into a secular Delevingne family. Her grandfather is Sir Jocelyn Stevens, former head of the English Heritage Commission. Mama Pandora is the head of one of the departments at the Selfridges department store. Dad Charles was involved in residential design. 
The godparents of the famous model are also well-known people - actress Joan Collins and writer Nicholas Coleridge. In addition to Cara, the Delevingne family has two more daughters - Chloe and Poppy. The latter, by the way, is also known in the fashion world; for a long time she was the face of Louis Vuitton advertising campaigns. The girls always had a warm relationship, and the family was considered exemplary.
Delevingne is related to the royal family. Kara studied at the prestigious private educational institution Bedales. However, even with obvious family wealth, already in her youth she strived for financial independence. She motivated this by the desire to prove to her loved ones that she was capable of achieving success herself.
Despite the fact that Kara spent her entire childhood in the prestigious Belgravia area of London, moved in the upper echelons of society, received an excellent education and has family ties with the Princess of Wales, she retained a cheerful disposition. The younger Delevingne is not shy about making faces in front of the cameras, appearing without makeup and experimenting with looks.
