Summary
A day after her first solo digital cover shoot for Vogue, Alex Consani stopped by the podcast studio to chat with Chloe Malle and Hannah Jackson about working on the story with photographer Ethan James Green and stylist Malina Joseph Gilchrist in a quaint Brooklyn brownstone.
Along with being one of Vogue’s December cover stars and a model of the moment, Alex is also in the middle of her first “adult” move into a brownstone in Fort Greene—with help from her friend Paloma Elsesser. In her own words, Alex’s years of saving and living frugally in New York, asking her friends for their leftovers and carrying lucky crystals around in her Birkin, helped to manifest this moment. Alex also dives into what it was like styling her parents for Vogue World: Hollywood, why she sometimes doesn’t use a stylist, and her advice for getting used to wearing heels.
Plus, Chloe and Chioma dive into British Vogue and Vogue US’s best dressed lists, as well as the big Met co-chair announcement that dropped this week.
