Max Alexander is a fashion designer. At the age of 4, he told his parents he was a dressmaker. They took him at his word and began giving him raw materials to make his designs. They probably weren’t expecting much from their son, but he surprised them. He is REALLY good at creating stunning designs. You can watch him creating one of his designs in this TikTok video.

Max gets a lot of support from his mom, but the talent and labor are all his. One trip through the videos on his Instagram and TikTok pages shows him doing everything from concept to completion. His parents maintain his social media accounts and website, Couture to the Max.

Max lives in Southern California with his parents and two younger siblings. His passion for fashion increases as he grows. He has had formal sewing lessons, and his designs have become more sophisticated. During an interview with People, Max says he was Guccio Gucci in a past life. Whether you believe in reincarnation or not, there is a connection between Max and the famed Italian fashion designer.

Max has contributed custom dresses to several celebrities. His website biography says, “He is saving for his first apartment in New York and attends First Grade in his spare time.” We can’t wait to see what incredible fashion designs Max Alexander sends to the Red Carpet!
