LONDON RUNWAY

NEW FACE: ALEXIS Name: Alexis Perez Age: 26 Location: Los Angeles, CA Agency: Slay Models Management

How long have you been modelling for? I started modeling in 2016, but I have been on and off for quite some time. Starting 2022, I’ve taken it more seriously and invested a lot more time and effort into my modeling career. Where are you from originally? I am originally from the Philippines, growing up in a secluded small farm far from the city. At 15, my family and I moved to San Francisco.

Do you have an unusual talent or party trick? Ever since I was little, I have been very much into mixed martial arts. I can remain balanced while doing high kicks countless times with only one foot on the ground supporting my weight the entire time. What are your modelling ambitions? My modeling ambitions are to be able to walk NYFW and LAFW and be represented by the brands I love, such as Calvin Klein, Adidas, and Chanel. I want to be able to look back in time and see that I pursued my dream no matter what. I want to be able to leave my mark in this industry and show everyone that I was HERE.
