The model-of-the-moment, British Cara Delevingne, has added yet another string to her already impressive bow (which includes her burgeoning acting career and her collaboration with Mulberry) by designing a capsule collection for DKNY, entitled ‘Cara Delevingne for DKNY‘, scheduled to hit the counters in November 2014.

I can’t believe that some random, rough ideas have finally turned into my own collection…designs with my own name on them and in collaboration with the iconic DKNY brand,” she said to WWD shortly after breaking the news via her Instagram account last night, saying: “Get Ready!!! It’s Coming… #Cara4DKNY“, alongside a picture of what appears to be the official logo for the collection.

Meanwhile the 21-year-old has added yet another tattoo to her growing collection, and this time she’s roped in fellow DKNY model and BFF Jourdan Dunn. Both got interlocking DDs etched onto the hips in reference to the self-anointed nickname based on their surnames.

She is one of the cool girls, photographed by the paparazzi on the streets of London and New-York with androgynous looks, skinny jeans, coloured snickers and woolly hats – she became a trend setter, having 5.5 million followers on Instagram, more even than Lady Gaga, that reached 3.7 million followers.

This is the reason why the model is using her vast social media reach to cast two or three wannabe models to star alongside her in the campaign for the collection.  “Guys! So, I created a sick special-edition collection with @donnakarandkny coming later this year, and I WANT YOU to be in the campaign with me!” Delevingne posted. “I’m casting for a few lucky fans to come to New York City and model my new #DKNY collection in a special photo shoot with me.” Over 18s can post their photo to Instagram using the hashtags #CaraWantsYou and #Cara4DKNY between now and 16 June for the chance of being picked.

All Terms and conditions here.

The collection will have 15 pieces, and will feature a selection of items that wouldn’t look out of place in her own model-off-duty wardrobe, such as tank tops, a parka jacket and a tracksuit – most of which are unisex – with prices that will range from $ 70 for a beanies, to $ 150 for a t-shirt, and $ 735 for a leather motorcycle jacket “TO DIE FOR” with removable sleeves.

Cara’s been working with DKNY for two years now starring in campaigns for their Spring Summer 2013, Autumn Winter 2013 and Spring Summer 2014 collections. Her most recent promo video for the brand showed her playing American football alongside bezzie Jourdan Dunn, Brit beauty Eliza Cummings and rapper A$AP Rocky.
