Kate Moss Was Cara Delevingne For Halloween: Let's Discuss
Our favourite model of the moment, the silly faced Cara Delevingne has officially reached the status of Halloween costume. She can now be aligned with the vampires and minions of this world. Who made it all possible? Well naturally, it was none other than Kate Moss. Cara has already declared the supermodel as someone she aspires to, but who would have envisioned the impact this would have on the queen of modelling herself?
This weekend, Kate Moss decided to honor/mock/celebrate Cara by dressing up in head-to-toe Cara gear for Halloween (hoodie and tongue included). While a costume can have many functions, including but not limited to, seductive, scary, and shocking, this one was particularly striking due to the frequent comparisons drawn between the two. While Kate Moss was the sexy party girl of yesteryear, Cara is everyone's current muse with an infectious personality that makes everyone want to be her best friend (including Pharrell). The two models were recently featured in an ad together for Burberry because of everyone's obsession with pairing them together.
What do these two women have in common?
They're both British.
They're both party girls.
They're both blond.
They're both top models in the industry.
They're both Burberry girls.
Need I say more?
Now, let's contemplate the psychological motivations behind this costume choice for a moment.
Was it tasteful or tasteless?
Is Cara's transformation into a Halloween costume a signal of her status in the industry?
Is Kate's jest funny or slightly offensive?
Is Kate looking to regain the attention that's been diverted towards Cara?
OR can one view this costume choice as an older sister making fun of her younger sibling? If that is the case, let them be sisters for a night. Perhaps next year, Cara will be Kate. But in this case, it probably won't be Halloween.

Cara and Karl: A Love Story
Once upon a time, there was a young man named Karl Lagerfeld. A creative soul, he spent his youth exploring his love for women's fashion and rose to the top as creative director of fashion houses, Fendi and Chanel. One day, he met fresh British face, Cara Delevingne. It was love at first sight. Her infectious laugh and rambunctious personality drew him in and ever since, they've been Ernie and Bert, Thelma and Louise, Bonnie and Clyde. An inseparable pair.
This season, Cara expressed her mutual love for Karl by ending his Fendi Fall 2014 runway show carrying a furry doll mimicking his appearance. He returned the favour by holding her hand at the end of his Chanel supermarket extravaganza.

Following these shows, Karl compared Cara to a young Kate Moss, super model queen, and Charlie Chaplin, the expressive actor with elaborate facial expressions from the early 20th century. Have you ever heard of such comparisons? The only person Karl adores more than his precious Choupette is Cara. Don't believe me? These photos are further proof of the love shared between this inseparable duo!
