Cara Delevingne for Saint Laurent Campaign
Although Cara Delevingne may be drawn to the allure of tinseltown, starring in the upcoming movie Suicide Squad, she hasn’t turned her back on modeling. Most recently, Cara fronted one of Hedi Slimane’s last Saint Laurent advertising campaigns. The British model and actress donned looks from the brand’s fall-winter 2016 couture collection.
