CARA DELEVINGNE IS BACK WITH A BANG! SHE IS THE FACE OF A SAINT LAURENT CAMPAIGN

Spread the love
 Saint Laurent has just announced Cara Delevingne as the face of their Fall
2016 “La Collection de Paris” ad campaign. Earlier this morning, the label took
to their Twitter to post pictures of the model-turned-actress in their latest
campaign. 

For someone who claims to have left the modeling industry, she’s had quite
a big 2016 so far. First, she starred in Chanel’s newest eyewear campaign—which
we assumed was just a favor to her BFF Karl Lagerfeld—but then she played muse
to artist Jonathan Yeo, who has nine of her painted portraits displayed in his
retrospective, and now this.
 The ads feature Delevingne in (of course) the iconic “Le Smoking” suit, as
well as in pieces from the heavily ’80s-influenced Fall 2016 collection,
including a fur coat with some major shoulders. However, this isn’t the first
time she’s worked with the creative director, Hedi Slimane, for Saint Laurent.
She’s walked in two of his shows (Fall 2013 and Spring 2015) and was featured
in both campaigns. She also has modeled for two Yves Saint Laurent Beauty ads.
Does this campaign confirm the quirky Instagram star’s official return to
the fashion world? We certainly hope so.
