Model and actress Cara Delevingne suffers from a disease that can cause serious complications such as heart attacks and various deformities.
As always, Cara Delevingne caught her eye this time when she appeared at this year's Met Gala. Just when everyone thought that the controversial model was determined to stay true to the elegant outfit - the red suit, Cara took off her jacket.
Then - shock! The model painted her body golden, while she covered her breasts with a minimal piece of fabric. Make-up artist Romy Soleimani, who is responsible for the look of the model, explained that the golden color should have referred to the male and female elements of Delevingne and the style of David Bowie.
However, the seals on the skin remained visible, which made everyone wonder what it was about. In an interview in 2015, Cara revealed that her skin peels off after fashion shows during fashion weeks.
"This is obviously the worst time of the year for my skin. Kate Moss saw me before the Louis Vuitton show at 3:00 in the morning when my body was painted to cover the scabs. She said, 'This is terrible! Why is this happening?' I have to help you ", the model revealed.
It is psoriasis, a chronic autoimmune disease that affects the skin. It causes the appearance of pink, scaly spots, which mostly appear on the arms, elbows, and lower back. Psoriasis is a common, long-term (chronic) disease with no cure. Cara is one of the few people who spoke openly about her struggle with this disease.
"People put on gloves and didn't want to touch me because they thought I had leprosy or something. It wasn't a good period, I struggled for months. I was constantly on edge. It's also a matter of psyche, because if you hate yourself, your body, the way you look, is getting worse and worse,” she said on one occasion.
Kim Kardashian also suffers from this condition.
