Most people might see Alex Consani’s outfit and wonder, “Where are her pants?” However, following the iconic ’90s supermodel trend, Consani embraces the pants-optional look for a night out.
Alex Consani, a newly crowned Victoria’s Secret Angel, rocked an all-black ensemble at the opening of Aritzia’s new storefront in Manhattan’s SoHo. For her daring look, she chose a tiny thong paired with sheer tights straight from her underwear drawer. Staying true to the monochrome theme, she added pointed-toe pumps and an off-the-shoulder top that perfectly highlighted her figure.
The entire outfit, including Consani’s wind-swept blonde hair, channeled Kate Moss’s iconic sheer party dress, which sparked a generation of bold, “naked” dressing. More recently, stars like Hailey Bieber and Bella Hadid have joined the trend, stepping out sans pants with effortless confidence.
Later in the evening, Consani met up with fellow model Paloma Elsesser, who also rocked an all-black look. Elsesser embraced the statement belt trend with a bold cream belt, perfectly paired with a form-fitting black dress and a sleek coat.
In a recent interview with W, Consani revealed her style icons: Jane Birkin, Brigitte Bardot, and her effortlessly chic mom—a surprising choice, considering her love for turning underwear into outerwear. “The way my mom wore clothing is something I now appreciate more because it was so understated,” she shared. “And Mom, don’t take this the wrong way, girl, but it was definitely under-dressed. Now, I admire icons like Jane Birkin and Brigitte Bardot because their effortless style feels so comfortable compared to much of today’s fashion.” While Consani may have been under-dressed last night, her look was anything but understated.
