Despite Cara Delevigne’s raunchy Met Gala look, all eyes were on her psoriasis, which the in-demand model boldly put on full display for the watching cameras. Delevigne notably didn’t cover up the flaky, inflamed patches of skin on her elbows with gold paint, likely in a bid to stop her skin from being irritated any further. Fans online cheered the move, with one writing, “Cara Delevigne leaving her psoriasis visible in her met gala look is so validating to me,” while another noted, “Psoriasis is not something to be ashamed of.” They added, “It’s wonderful how Cara Delevigne used a platform like the Met Gala to raise awareness about this chronic condition.”
The British star has been open about her struggles with the skin condition over the years, telling W Magazine in 2013 that modeling actually exacerbated it. “I want to make music, I want to act, I want to sing, I want to do something that doesn’t make my skin erupt,” she admitted at the time. In fact, Delevigne subsequently told The Times (via Buzzfeed), “I am not doing fashion work anymore, after having, like, psoriasis and all that stuff.” The “Paper Towns” star added sagely, “Modeling just made me feel a bit hollow after a while. It didn’t make me grow at all as a human being.”
