Services
01
Fashion Intern
Allegra is actively open to pursuing a fashion internship with another respectable designer who adheres to her skill level. Based in New York and Boston, she is able to travel back and forth. A fashion internship could include helping on set, helping source clothes (pickups), helping with casting and styling, creating a custom piece for an important production, or behind-the-scenes photography, skills that she has nearly 5 years of experience in.
02
Fashion Styling
Allegra has had years of experience with fashion styling, as it's a natural part of her career as a fashion designer. Not only does she pride herself on being able to pull pieces from her own collection for various shoots for different artists, but she uses unique techniques such as skin painting, bright avant-garde makeup, sculptural hair, and probiding her artistic opinion and vision to the table. Allegra is a 2d artist as well, so she brings a unique perspective to the styling table revolving around color and shape that maybe a non 2d artist wouldnt be able to see.
03
Creative Direction
An important part of Allegra's career is maintaining variation for her wide variety of skills. She can make garments from scratch, play with unique, geometrical patterning techniques that defy the gender norm in traditional pattern making, and style pieces in a special and unique way. Allegra can fit the mold for a prompt very well. Having gone to fashion school in high school, she has the natural spirit of a creative director and would love to help out with other respectable artists' creative visions. Please contact me below if you have any ideas!
About Me
Allegra (Alex) Grappo is a 19-year-old fashion designer and stylist from Boston Massachusettes but who also lives part-time in New York. She is proficient in many skills such as: patterning, sewing, tailoring, fashion sketching, international production, styling, Clo3d, and fashion photography. All of Allegra's designs were completely patterned, sewn, styled, photographed, edited, and marketed online by herself. She initially started designing at a private arts school called Walnut Hill School for the Arts (located in Natick, MA), at the age of 15. Ever since high school, Allegra has had much success creating her own brand by herself. She has manufactured garments and navigated ethical production in the industry through her own trials and errors. Now, she has completely sold out her clothing drops 5 separate times with over 100 sales internationally while running 0 ads. Allegra has gained knowledge on the industry's most demanding skillsets, such as experience with Clo3d, a digital clothing software where you can draft patterns online, Adobe, where techflats for a manufacturer are made, and fashion sketching 8 head croquis as per the industry's standard. Allegra just participated in NYFW at Club 51 in February and presented 5 different looks with 9 pieces in total. Not only does she create clothes, but she also has a strong and consistent vision, which, with the proper branding and marketing, is expected to expand greatly, especially considering all of her success so far, with no one helping to significantly boost her. She has also gained social media attention with her Instagram and TikTok videos reaching half a million views and tens of thousands of likes and comments on her fashion content (Ig @allegrappo, Tiktok @b3nxet.me)
