Charli xcx hails 'effervescent' model Alex Consani
Charli xcx has heaped praise on Alex Consani, describing the model as "effervescent".
Charli xcx thinks Alex Consani has "brought the personality back to fashion".
The 34-year-old pop star has heaped praise on Alex, her showbiz pal, observing that she's changed the fashion industry through her "effervescent and infectious personality".
Charli told TIME: "Alex Consani walks into a room and lights the whole thing up. Not only is she a literal supermodel, she’s also got an effervescent and infectious personality that everyone loves being around.
"Obviously, we’ve seen the hilarious TikToks and backstage interviews, but I think my favourite side of Alex is when she’s kind of just chilling.
"I find her at parties because I know I’m going to have a really soothing, introspective conversation. I learn something new not only about her but also about myself. That’s a really beautiful thing in the fast-paced worlds we both exist within."
Charli loves seeing Alex, 23, walk the fashion runway.
The chart-topping pop star also described the model as a "trailblazer and a student of runway history".
She said: "Watching her on the runway always gets me hyped.
"She’s brought the personality back to fashion: the ferocity, the softness, the fantasy. Being both a trailblazer and a student of runway history allows her to honour her predecessors and also put her own stamp on things. I’ve been thinking about the perfect word to describe her while writing this out on my Notes app, and there really is only one: superstar."
Alex feels passionately about her work and the fashion industry more broadly.
However, the model appreciates that her friends have helped her to remain grounded amid her rise to stardom.
The runway star told AnOther: "I live to work. I love what I do, love working in fashion and talking about fashion. So it’s a bit easier for me to have that balance.
"But I think it’s important to have people you hang out with who are far removed from the industry. My friends are Bushwick lesbians, so that’s a beautiful side of my life that gives me a lot of grounding."
