Alex Consani: Manifesting Dreams & Being Frugal In NYC

Video Description

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. 00:00 - Intro 00:28 - Moving to Fort Greene 02:53 - Best Dressed Vogue Cover 05:11 - First Fashion Memories 07:30 - Alex’s Grandmother 08:35 - The Birkin 11:49 - Manifesting 12:40 - Being Frugal in New York City 15:04 - The Olsens 15:50 - Stylists 17:22 - Outfit Planning 19:02 - Wearing Heels 20:30 - Embracing Chic 22:15 - Becoming Norma Jeane (Marilyn Monroe) 24:48 - Holy Grail Shopping 26:33 - Social Media 28:21 - Instagram Algorithm 29:22 - Alex’s Supportive Parents 31:35 - Group Chats 32:16 - Writing and Directing 34:37 - Movies 35:37 - Dream Film Project 36:45 - Being In Music Videos 38:58 - Music Playlists 40:25 - New Home Decorations Still haven’t subscribed to Vogue on YouTube? ►► http://bit.ly/vogueyoutubesub Get the best of Vogue delivered right in your inbox ►► https://bit.ly/3xAZyQg Subscribe to the magazine ►► http://vogue.com/subscribe_yt Download the Vogue App ►► https://apps.apple.com/us/app/vogue-runway-more/id289380413 Check out 'The Run-Through with Vogue' podcast ►► https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-run-through-with-vogue/id1526206712 Vogue YouTube Channels: British Vogue: https://www.youtube.com/@britishvogue Vogue Taiwan: https://www.youtube.com/@voguetvtaiwan Vogue France: https://www.youtube.com/@VogueFrance Vogue India: https://www.youtube.com/@VogueIndia Vogue Japan: https://www.youtube.com/@VogueJapan Vogue México y Latinoamérica: https://www.youtube.com/@VogueMexicoyLatinoamerica Vogue Germany: https://www.youtube.com/@VogueGermany Vogue Italia: https://www.youtube.com/@VogueItalia Vogue Spain: https://www.youtube.com/@VogueSpain ABOUT VOGUE Vogue is the authority on fashion news, culture trends, beauty coverage, videos, celebrity style, and fashion week updates.
