When it comes to celebrity tattoos, Cara Delevingne's are almost as famous as the model-actor herself, with more than 20 to her name (or should that be body). The inking started in May 2013, when she had a lion tattooed onto her index finger, and has since progressed to being tattooed by Margot Robbie, her co-star in Suicide Squad. In fact, Cara has come clean about her tattoo obsession to Grazia Daily, confessing: 'I can't stop!'
Cara's tattoos are more than works of hand-drawn body art though. They have been the main feature of campaigns (see her Tag Heuer ad), were referenced in her range of Mulberry handbags and have even been copied on the catwalk (models at one Giambattista Valli show were covered in Cara-esque temporary tats).
Her artist of choice is usually New York-based Bang Bang (aka Keith McCurdy), who is the go-to tattoo artist of many A-listers, including Cara's friends Rita Ora and Rihanna, but also Katy Perry and Justin Bieber.
Keith has cultivated a reputation for creating some of the most realistic and detailed tattoos out there, and is now considered one of the most in-demand tattooists of the entertainment industry. His name comes from the the two guns that are tattooed on his neck, and, incredibly, he taught himself the craft from his mother's kitchen.
Back to Cara, who has confessed that getting more tattoos done isn't out of the question. As she told ELLE__, her next one will probably be a fairy inspired by one of her friends.
Here's a look at some of the model-actor's existing tattoos that we've long admired. From her undying love for bacon to her quest for quiet and the eyes on the back of her neck, there's a lot to unpick. Here's a list of her tattoos and where the inspiration for each came from.
