Cara Delevingne is British Vogue's Cover Girl Again


Cara Delevingne scores her second British Vogue cover in the space of 10 months. Inside the magazine charts her rise to mega-stardom via the social media frenzy that follows her every move
She was only there back in March of this year but in a very glossy equivalent of a fast-track-no-claims-insurance-bonus, Cara Delevingne has scored her second British Vogue cover in the space of just 10 months, kicking off 2014.

Delevingne appears in a stunning series of shots taken by photographer Alasdair McLellan and styled by Kate Phelan (who recently returned to the title in a part time capacity alongside her role at Topshop). The January cover has her in head to toe Saint Laurent by Hedi Slimane and while, admittedly, the cropped wool tuxedo jacket and silk-chiffon blouse come in at £2,830 and £1,110 respectively, we are pleased to report that the red faux leather pants are an eminently more affordable £395 - entry level Slimane for the Cara generation.

Victoria Beckham takes the helm for Vogue Paris December /January

With two warm, personal shots from photographers Inez & Vinoodh covering the issue and a host of family photos inside, this December’s Vogue Paris transports readers straight into the world of Victoria Beckham."We entrusted the editor's chair for this issue to a woman who revealed herself to be the absolute opposite of her public image while we were working together. Spontaneous and full of humor, she's modest, with a healthy dose of ambition. And like all those who are truly passionate about what they do, Victoria is a perfectionist," writes Emmanuelle Alt, editor-in-chief of Vogue Paris in her December/January 2014 editorial.
While Beckham has become a fashion superstar on the New York scene, she’s built a global business empire, never failing to build on her success wherever life has taken her. In London she picked up 2011’s Designer Brand of the Year award at the British Fashion Awards, in Los Angeles she made a home for herself and her family, and, in Paris she didn’t skip a beat, following husband David Beckham as he joined football team Paris Saint Germain. Indeed, David Beckham, the man with whom Victoria has shared her life for the past 14 years, was at the designer’s side throughout her time at Vogue Paris, a fact that shines through on the pages of the issue and in Inez & Vinoodh's tender shots of the couple. Later in the issue, writer Marie Darrieussecq sits down with Beckham to discover what makes the woman behind all those stunning evening gowns and impeccably cut tuxedo suits tick. And, in an extended holiday invitation to Vogue Paris readers, Victoria Beckham shares Christmas memories, family photos, personal anecdotes and even some of her four children’s drawings.
So, what does a typical day look like for the designer? Vogue Paris reveals all, stepping backstage at Beckham’s Spring/Summer 2014 show and following in the star’s famously high-heeled footsteps to take in her favorite Paris hotspots. Back in London come tea time, readers join Beckham and friends Valentino Garavani, Anish Kapoor and Marc Jacobs, once advised Beckham to “be true to yourself and never scrimp on style,” as they reminisce and talk fashion. Vogue Paris, n° 943, out December 2 on international press stands and to download on iPad and iPhone.
