BiographyAlexa Chung (born 5 November 1983) is an English model and television personality. Chung pursued a modelling career as a teenager after being scouted by a modeling agency at the Reading Festival. She has walked for brands such as Vivienne Westwood, Stella McCartney and Miu Miu, as well as being the face of Pepe Jeans, Lacoste, DKNY Jeans, Tommy Hilfiger and Longchamp.
In 2006, Chung became co‑host of Channel 4's music show Popworld, known for its irreverent and awkward style of interviews. In 2007, she became a long-time host of Channel 4's early morning music programme Freshly Squeezed. That same year, Chung left England to pursue a career in the US, where she presented It's On with Alexa Chung for MTV. The show was cancelled in December 2009. She returned to the UK in 2010 and began hosting MTV Rocks' Gonzo with Alexa Chung, a British chat show previously hosted by Zane Lowe. In 2020, Chung joined Queer Eye's Tan France as co-host of the Netflix original fashion competition show Next in Fashion; the show was cancelled after one season and later revived with model Gigi Hadid replacing Chung.
Chung has been recognised for her fashion style. She has been described as "the 21st-century it girl" and as "a proto-influencer". In January 2010, Mulberry debuted the "Alexa", a bag named after and inspired by her. Chung has won three British Style Awards at the Fashion Awards which are organised by the British Fashion Council. In 2013 she wrote the book It, a collection of personal writings, drawings and photographs. Her fashion label Alexa Chung, stylized alexachung, launched in May 2017 and closed in 2022.
