Name: Alexis Carene Hutt

Age: 23

Agency: Look Model Agency
Lives in: Oakland

Favorite Booking: “Noel Gallagher’s "High Flying Birds" music video.”

Favorite Local Designer: “Kathryn McCarron.”

What's special about being a model in S.F.? “I have a special relationship with my agent that mimics a family tie and it’s been a tremendous journey growing with my friends and colleagues in the same, or related fields. We all come from a pocket of hopes and dreams and timing, and are managing to make an impact, simply because we love our work and are inspired by our environment.”
Most treasured article of clothing or jewelry: “It’s a tie between the best friend ring I got on a Navajo reservation off Old Route 66 and my black velvet ‘death shroud.’”
What's your best style secret? “After a hot shower and shave, blast yourself with cold water, which shrinks the pores and fat cells. I know it sounds scary, but it’s refreshing when the room is steamy. And use a deep conditioning lotion to gloss up your limbs. Also, if you are really tripping in cellulite or you're going to wear mega booty shorts, double up on those pantyhose and hit the town!”
Fashion Resolution for 2012: “This year I'm focusing on representing the many women present inside of me and having fun, working hard, and raising hell.” 

Alexis wears a vintage Chanel headscarf, vintage sunglasses, earrings she made herself, vintage leather bra, Cheap Monday blouse, Forever21 jeans, vintage ballroom dancing shoes, a silver Native American necklace, and rings she bought on vacation.
