Model/actor Cara Delevingne covers the June issue of WSJ Magazine, styled by Alastair McKimm with images by Daniel Jackson.
In just a few years Delevingne has built a social media presence that ranks higher than Lady Gaga’s or Justin Timberlake.
“It doesn’t surprise me that she has built such a huge following,” says Burberry CEO and chief creative officer Christopher Bailey, who gave Delevingne her first big modeling contract in 2011. “The platform suits Cara perfectly because it’s so immediate. They get to see the real her—occasionally crazy, always fun and absolutely authentic.” Even Delevingne says that her digital popularity has helped her professionally. “I wouldn’t have done as well if I hadn’t had that. Not at all,” she says. “In the ’90s, I wouldn’t have been a supermodel.” Read on at WSJ.
