In 2014, these two British supermodels commemorated the “D” in their last names with a matching cursive double letter “D” image applied just above their hipbones by Bang Bang, naturally, their premier ink stylist.
A bold B.F.F. statement? (Extra emphasis on forever).
Lea Michele's Tender Remembrances
Lea Michele possesses at least 14 low-profile tattoos. Three of them are dedicated to her late fiancé and Glee co-star boyfriend, Cory Monteith.
There’s a “5” under her arm for the jersey number he wore on "Glee," his last words, “if you say so.” inked in along her ribcage, and just to yank on your heartstrings, he was replying to her response: “I love you more.” Crowning her left shoulder are two groovy musical notes commemorating their musical bond on "Glee" and beyond.
Cara Delevingne's Little Lion
Supermodel and Suicide Squad star Cara Delevingne caught the body art bug big time. Her detailed lion fingerpiece was inked by Bang Bang in NYC, and she returned again and again. She’s got, like, 20. Though Bang Bang’s work has been her first choice, Dr. Woo is her go-to tattoo artist in LA.
They all mean something. Her very first tat, the dainty lion etched in by Bang Bang’s tattoo guns, symbolizes her astrological sign. She’s a Leo, so for her, the lion represents fearlessness and serves as a reminder of her inner fire.
Delevingne's "Made In England" Stamp
One more for Cara Delevingne, her chic ink portfolio demands it. The text tattooed on the sole of her foot, like a doll stamped on a factory production line, is a protest of sorts.
Delevingne said modeling can be dehumanizing, they’re treated as doll parts, objectified, she said she felt like a mannequin. “Made in England” is her personal rebellion.
Gisele Bundchen's Little Twinkly Star
Brazillian supermodel Gisele Bundchen relocated to NYC and found something was missing. She looked up to the sky, but the big city outshined the stars.
So, every night for a month Bundchen drew one on her wrist as a memento of home. Eventually, she made her dainty design a permanent fixture.
