See the full Cara Delevingne x DKNY capsule collection »

As if we didn’t share enough Cara Delevingne love yesterday, she just peeped her upcoming DKNY collab and it’s everything we hoped for. A little tomboy, a little bad ass and a whole lot athle-chic, Delevingne’s off-duty model swag is written all over this 15-piece collection. You’ll have to wait until October 15 to get your hands on these pieces (ranging from $70 to $375), but it’s time everyone start their fall shopping list and her moto-jacket and graphic tees are sure to top them all.

A year in the making, this capsule blossomed from an idea exchange about a jumpsuit. And if her Mulberry backpack designs were any indication, we were sure this collab was going to thrill. The model has had a budding relationship with the brand including runway shows and four DKNY campaigns over the past two years. A mix of the brand’s urban-edge aesthetic and Delevingne’s quirky individuality has sealed this collection as a definite must-have. And perhaps the coolest part—Delevingne cast her instagram friends for the campaign photoshoot, choosing six models after a month-long search.

The ad campaign for Marc Jacobs’ Daisy Dream, the designer’s latest fragrance, has been released and luckily for, well, everyone, it’s directed by the one and only Sofia Coppola.

It’s no secret that the critically acclaimed director knows how to work the lens, and this time she’s done it in a daisy-filled haze.
