Cara Delevingne Credits Instagram With Her Success (Harper’s Bazaar UK)
“I don’t think that I would have been as big of a model if Instagram hadn’t come around,” Delevingne recently told Harper’s Bazaar UK. “I really grew up in that age of when Instagram was coming up. Now really is the social media age.” Despite this, she also realizes it is necessary to step away the app for her health. “I take regular breaks and really monitor my phone time. I especially try not to use my phone before going to bed because it stops you going to sleep, so I always turn it on airplane mode around 9pm to wind down.”

Now, the gown is estimated to fetch £350,000 ($453,200).
