interview<\/h2>\n

Name:<\/strong>
\nAlexandra Moncreiffe<\/a><\/p>\n

Agency:<\/strong>
\nSelect Model Management (London)<\/a><\/p>\n

Age:<\/strong>
\n19<\/p>\n

Height:<\/strong>
\n5’10”<\/p>\n

Place of Origin:<\/strong>
\nPerthshire, Scotland<\/p>\n

Ethnic Origin:<\/strong>
\nVery Scottish, quite Irish and a little bit Native American<\/p>\n

Birthsign:<\/strong>
\nSCORPIO!!<\/p>\n

How discovered:<\/strong>
\nWalked into Select when I was working in a kitchen unpaid, it’s where my mother and sister started modeling<\/p>\n

Favorite things:<\/strong>
\nMy family, the countryside, walking, cooking, drawing, animals, prayer, boogeying, laughing, John Terries, fresh produce – ha, reading, music, the sun, traveling<\/p>\n

What are you listening to at the moment?<\/strong>
\nLove all kinds of music! Reggae, disco, rock roll, soul, sometimes like a bit of hip hop, electro swing. My sisters influence a lot of what I listen to, the tunes are rolling non stop when we’re together<\/p>\n

Favorite movie, tv show:<\/strong>
\nAh I love films, best so far have probably been Ferris Bueller’s Day Off or Weekend at Bernie’s. I watched Predator last night which was pretty good and love watching Dad’s Army – the old TV programme.<\/p>\n

Favorite designer, fragrance or beauty product:<\/strong>
\nI put Argan oil on my lashes and carrot butter from the organic pharmacy on my skin every night before bed. The best beauty is probably drinking water though!<\/p>\n

What would you be doing if you weren’t modeling?<\/strong>
\nProbably travelling, I really want to go back out to India and start working with Mary\u2019s Meals which is a charity my uncle helped to start, it encourages poorer children to get an education by providing food for them in schools<\/p>\n

What’s something uncool that you love anyway?<\/strong>
\nPracticing my moves by myself in case I get chosen for a dance off<\/p>\n

Favorite modeling experience so far?<\/strong>
\nSo far most of my work has been really fun. Walking for Lanvin was thrilling, felt amazing to see \u2018behind the scenes\u2019 of such a beautiful project<\/p>\n

What’s the best thing about your hometown\/country?<\/strong>
\nIt’s just one big bottle of fun, because of my big family the house is always full, there’s so much clean air and space in the countryside to have parties and run around in. I miss all of my animals and the trees<\/p>\n

Which brand would you really love to model for?<\/strong>
\nSaint Laurent is right up my street, I love it’s timeless, rock and roll style, Alexander McQueen is another super cool one, their work is not only just about making something fashionable it’s about creating a true piece of art. <\/p>\n

Place you would love to visit:<\/strong>
\nSo many places!! I want to go to Cuba soon and Bhutan, I think it’s quite hard to get to but it’s an amazingly peaceful place where they measure their country\u2019s success by gross national happiness not wealth<\/p>\n

Currently you’re obsessed with\/about:<\/strong>
\nTash Sultana, this new Australian musician I just discovered, she’s so great, you can tell she has such a good time making her music and she’s doing what she really loves. Also I\u2019ve been watching documentaries on cob houses, which are like sustainable houses, they’re really cool, you should look them up<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
