How did Alexa Chung get famous?

Alexa was scouted at the age of 16 at Reading Festival.

She went on to model for Elle Girl and CosmoGIRL.

Her big break came after she bagged her own show, It’s On With Alexa Chung, on MTV.

The show first aired in 2009 and had two seasons. It featured several music stars with live performances.

Alexa went from being a model to an IT girl, and launched her own fashion label ALEXACHUNG in 2017.

It targeted women in their early thirties.

The first collection in 2017 was described as strong and accessible, but the price range did receive a few complaints.

The label started closing its doors in March 2022.

Alexa shared the news on her Instagram on March 17, 2022, saying the decision to stop her own fashion line was not taken lightly and that she has been gradually winding down operations.
