Alexa Chung for V Magazine

Posted on 24. Nov, 2009 by bespokeordie in People

Alexa Chung was recently interviewed by Derek Blasberg and shot by photographer Sharif Hamza as part of a small interview for V Magazine. You may recall that back in April of this year Alexa was awarded the #4 spot on Glamour’s best dressed list. So, it should come as no surprise that the shoot which accompanies this editorial features the beauty in a Stella McCartney jumpsuit, a Dolce & Gabbana dress, and a Chanel top, skirt, and belt covered ever so subtly by Miss Chung’s own jacket. I think the irony of the high-fashion attire shot in a bowling alley was an interesting choice. Below you will find the first paragraph of the editorial titled “Let’s Talk About Alexa Chung,” I found it pretty interesting.

Alexa Chung, the recent London expat and Brooklyn resident whose MTV show It’s On with Alexa Chung took over the coveted TRL spot this summer, is a busy lady. An average day goes something like this: up at 6:40 a.m., she gets dressed and heads over the Williamsburg Bridge to the MTV offices. Once there, she’s briefed, goes through the day’s scripts, gets her hair and makeup done, and reviews her audio cues. Next, she’s on set, where she greets the day’s special guests, pumps up the crowd, and does her show. The audience goes nuts, the show ends, there are meetings about the next day’s schedule, then a security guard walks her to her car for the ride home. It was there, in the backseat, that she finally found time to do an interview. Here, the new darling of daytime talk discusses her hit show, grumpy guests, and her new life on this side of the pond.
