With almost a decade of reign as the ultimate it girl, our September cover star Cara Delevingne shows no signs of slowing down. With both successful modelling and acting careers under her belt, as well as a wealth of designer collaborations and a longstanding relationship with British label Burberry, she is the embodiment of the modern woman.
