Alejandro Corzo Suarez 26 years old, originally from Gijon – Asturias (North of Spain) Is a busy model, Working on pursing his dreams of modeling, acting, and being a journalist on his spear time.

After that, I started to do some catalogues, runways and TV commercials. Q: How do you keep fit, what is your training routine and menu? A: I go to the gym 5 times a week, I work out (weights) for 45 minutes to an hour. I eat a lot, so I have to be careful with the amount of calories, I don’t eat fast food or animal fat. I really like fish, chicken and vegetables, so It’s not so difficult for me to keep on diet. Q: How do you define your style and what your favorite store to shop? A: It depends of the situation and also of the market (the country where I am working at that moment). I like to be comfortable with the clothes I’m wearing, for me the perfect outfit is a pair of Hawaianas, tank top and shorts. Because of the castings and jobs sometimes I have to dress up more formal so I like to wear jeans and a blazer, always feeling comfortable. My favorite shop to buy is the Spanish store, Zara, you can wear really basic clothes being elegant. Q: What are your main interests & hobbies? A: Well, I have so many things in mind that I would like to do and to know. I love animals, when I was a kid I was always reading books and taking animals to my home and I really like to know different cultures, to explore different cities, that is actually one of the reasons why I wanted to be a model, because it gives me the opportunity to do it. Q: What is the one fashion item that you can’t live without? A: Sunglasses & my cell phone, this two items are the once I always need to be with me. Q: Who are some of your favorite models and designers, and why? A: My icon is Mark Vanderloo, he represents the classic model, elegant and charming. I have some designers in mind, I like Tom Ford, Salvatore Ferragamo, Gucci, Perry Ellis and Carolina Herrera. Q: Which fashion magazines do you like to read? A: I always read Esquire, GQ, Tatler and Men’s health. Q: What’s your fashion mantra? A: The industry nowadays allows that many people can begin to be models and the mass media have done also his contribution what evidently has benefited to the mode as such but harmed to the real professional model, since many people believe that to have a good face or a body, they think that it is sufficient, forgetting the attitude, and joined to the technology, plus the competition and the need to sell, which is translated in millionaires earnings, does that the being I shape it is nowadays a career coveted by the young persons, who look only for reputation and money turning the profession into a hobby for many which puts down the image of the real models and this joined the recent crisis that lives through the world economy and that the industry does not escape of it.
