CARA AND POPPY DELEVINGNE
“I quite enjoyed being the youngest daughter and was horrified when this little creature arrived at the house wrapped up like a potato,” recalls London-based model Poppy Delevingne (right), 24, of her sister and flatmate, Cara (left), 18, whose godmother is Joan Collins. “That grew into this insane fascination: I would dress her up, put makeup on her, and teach her every song and dance. She became my little doll.” Poppy even taught her younger sister how to walk in high heels when Cara started modeling a year ago—she’s the face of Burberry’s spring/summer 2011 campaign. The daughters of society fixtures Charles Delevingne and Pandora Stevens, the sisters “have been mothers to each other,” says Poppy, noting that Pandora’s struggles with drug addiction taught them “from a very young age how to take care of ourselves.” Their maturity, however, doesn’t preclude a shared “wacky sense of humor and an ability to sleep for days,” says Poppy. “And we’re both boy crazy; we love boys. We also love dressing up, but we’re so unbelievably messy. Sometimes our bedrooms are barricaded shut because there are clothes everywhere.”
Poppy Delevigne arrives at the Escada Autumn/Winter 2012 fashion show during Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Berlin at the Brandenburg Gate on January 18, 2012 in Berlin, Germany.
Is Poppy an actual working model, of is it one of these Amanda Hearst/Lauren Bush/Byrdie Bell Socialite Who Has Nothing Better To Do Between Parties things...?
^Well, but what defines her as a model?
I hate it when they just model or act for something and since then, they can be considered as "models" or "actors"
