Fashion Denver Style Files! Alexandra Hilker

We ran into Alexndra Hilker PR gal at Neiman Marcus at an event at Neiman’s and right away we knew we wanted to interview her and get more of a sense of her style and background!

-Introduce yourself:
Alexandra
PR gal, animal lover, mountain adventurer. I got into fashion following my college graduation by moving to Paris, where I worked in trend forecasting and editorial. After two years abroad, I began to miss this great state and made the move back to Denver. I love this town and all it has to offer. It’s an exciting time to be living in such an ever-changing city, and I am eager to see what the future holds for fashion and culture in the Mile High.

-How would you describe your personal style?
Comfort comes first. Gravitating towards anything oversized or asymmetrical. I love adding edgy or boyish touches to feminine looks.

-Where are you on at 2pm on a Tuesday?
Up to my knees in bills and our PR budget! Otherwise I’m pulling looks for shoots or working on inspiration for our next event.

-What is your favorite item of clothing in your closet?
Tied between – a vintage YSL cropped tuxedo jacket with crystal buttons and a blue velvet patterned pair of bell bottoms (the latter gets more wear).

-We are having the best time dressing for fall; what is your favorite season to dress for?
I will agree with you there, Fall and Winter are my favorite seasons for dressing. The aspect of layering makes a look so much more interesting. Dark colors and rich tones, unique textures, chunky knits, comfortable boots, and lots of hats in every variety – Fall!

-If you had a theme song, what would it be?
Dreams by Fleetwood Mac. It never will get old.

-You provide major fashion inspiration for us; who is your fashion inspiration?
Books, everyday streetwear, and of course blogs are always great outlets for inspiration. I really enjoy Hilda from Freshnet, Style By Kling, Trine’s Wardrobe, Adenorah, afterDRK and many more. Unexpected styling is always so cool and imaginative.

-I never leave my house without:
Water, iPad, good tunes, flats or converse for tired feet, lip balm, iPad, a woodsy fragrance, and Carbs!
