The [Topshop](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/winter-wonderland-popup) Holiday 2014 collection is undeniably festive, but also very edgy. Considering that the brand does tailor itself to a more youthful demographic, it is only natural that it would adopt a tough chic persona that is just as sexy. Full of dark colors, slick silhouettes and rich accents, the Topshop Holiday 2014 collection brings a dark element to the winter holidays that will have everyone wondering who that mysterious woman is.

In this case, the mysterious woman starring in the [Topshop Holiday 2014 ad campaign](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/winter-2025-campaign) is none other than British model Cara Delevingne. Still the industry's It Girl, even though Kendall is making waves, she is captured in a ritzy setting that does the outfits justice. Her look is perfected with smokey eyes and shiny hair.
