LOVEE//EXCLUSIVE - LOVE TALKS TO CARA DELEVINGNE
<3 <3 <3
LOVE: What was your favourite shoot in this issue of LOVE - as you've been in so many of them? Cara: OMG. The cover issue with Mert and Marcus where I'm in the bath... Going to Liverpool to shoot on the famous ferry was incredible... Shooting all day with a load of cats and tons of latex was so special... It's impossible to choose, I had such a good time shooting all of them! LOVE: Tell me about the onesies... Cara: I travel so much and the onesie has become my home from home, they are so comfy and cosy. I've worn them since I was 16 and love that I can just put one on and I'm fully dressed, it's so easy. I love the simplicity. LOVE: Is it your mum you're sat with on the sofa? Cara: Yes it's mum. She's the strongest woman I know and I respect her more than any other person, she's always there for me.
