British Supermodel Cara Delevingne is Topshop’s new 2014 campaign girl
MANILA, Philippines - Topshop launches its autumn-winter 2014 campaign with British supermodel, actress and global star Cara Delevingne as model.
Shot in London by renowned photographer Alasdair McLellan and styled by Topshop creative director Kate Phelan, the shoot features Cara wearing key looks in 12 compelling images.
Cara’s first appearance for Topshop was in 2010 when she featured in a Kate Moss Topshop campaign video. Her immersion into the brand family continued when she walked for Topshop Unique in the SS13, AW13 and SS14 catwalk shows. Cara’s famed Harlem Shake took place backstage at Topshop Unique AW13; the video clip in which she performs the infamous dance move has had over 1.6 million views on YouTube. Cara also became the first model to live-stream content from a runway when she carried a “Google-cam,” concealed within a handbag, down the Topshop Unique runway, when Topshop partnered with Google during London Fashion Week.
Topshop creative director Kate Phelan says: “Cara is a true Topshop girl. Her style is confident and playful and she can be sophisticated and chic as easily as she can be cool and casual. Putting her spin on everything, she makes the Topshop collection her own. Her uninhibited natural energy is intoxicating, she is free spirited and fun.”?
The collection focuses on a Topshop girl as hero pieces with go-anywhere appeal take centre stage. Starring alongside Topshop icons, the biker jacket, the Jamie jean, the Martha parka, Cara effortlessly personifies London style. Evening wear is reworked as modern fabrications and astute tailoring play with the concepts of smart/casual dressing and urban sophistication; the statement sequin and feather cocktail dress worn by Cara epitomizes this look.
