UNCOVERED: Cara delevingne inspired by rock and roll era | History Defined

Cara Delevingne has discussed her inspirations

Cara Delevingne has always felt inspired by the "rock-and-roll era".

The 34-year-old star has enjoyed significant success as a model, an actress and as a musician - but Cara doesn't think her style has evolved that much over the years.

Asked whether her style has changed as her career has evolved, Cara told ELLE: "I don’t think it’s that different.

"Sure, it’s had to mature and grow. And I’ve let go of things that don’t work for me. But I don’t think it’s like, 'Now that I’m doing music I’m gonna change how I dress.'

"I don’t think that’s the case because music has always been such a big part of my life and that’s always been there in my style, whether I have a band T-shirt on or I’m finding inspiration in that rock-and-roll era. I’ve always just f****** loved that."

Cara also shared her thoughts on the recent revival of the skinny jeans trend.

The London-born star - who has previously modelled for the likes of Chanel, Dior, Marc Jacobs, and Burberry - shared: "I don’t know how I ever wore the skinny jeans that I wore back then because of the size and comfort.

"I’m grateful that they went away because I really realise what it’s like to have circulation in my feet and legs. I love a skinny jean, but not the skinniest jean. I don’t want it to be a second skin.

"I think they make things look really cool depending on what you’re wearing. There’s always a time and place. Still, sometimes seeing men in that skinniest jean where it’s hugging the ankle — that should never be a thing."

Meanwhile, Cara previously claimed that she's able to express herself through her fashion choices.

The model explained that her dress sense often reflects her internal mood.

She said in a promo video for Calvin Klein: "There’s such a clever way about using clothing as a statement. My personal style is: I don’t really care, slash I do really care, slash whatever I feel that day."
