Just like her Euphoria character Maddy, who wears some of TV's most iconic outfits, Alexa Demie also happens to be a style connoisseur herself. Over the years, along with her acting career, Alexa has established a chic sense of fashion that social media can't get enough of. Whether it's on a red carpet or at an event, Alexa never misses an opportunity to show off an outfit.

Alexa’s timeless style resonates with generations who love a vintage find. A celeb favourite of Gen Z, her style is often reminiscent of iconic looks from the past rather than focused on fleeting trends.

Since she continues to live in our heads rent-free, we decided to take a look at Alexa Demie's style through the ages. (Hopefully, this can hold us over while we wait for the next episode of Euphoria!)

    Alexa attended a Tiffany & Co. event in Los Angeles serving some serious Marilyn Monroe vibes — and not in a Kim K way. The star donned a figure-hugging corseted dress in a velvety finish and styled her hair in loose, bouncy curls reminiscent of the 'dos the late star would sport in the '50s.

    Though the Monroe callbacks are undeniable, the colour palette was completely different. Monroe was known for her iconic blonde while Demie is still faithful to her brunette, which perfectly matched her dress, making this look not only on-brand but perfect for Halloween and Scorpio season.

    While attending a Tiffany & Co. event in London, England, Alexa went with a sleek monochrome look from Alaïa. She wore a chic bodycon dress with a matching balaclava and cardigan around her arms.

    Accessorised to the nines, Alexa was spotted out and about during Paris Fashion Week back in March. She opted for a casual outfit with a grey hoodie, baggy black pants and a black bandana over her freshly cropped hair, but her styling elevated the look. She wore silver pearl earrings, Xpander rectangle sunglasses, and a yellow Cagole bag, all from Balenciaga. Nobody can't say she can't commit to a theme. Also, she gets extra points for her mani. Alexa's street-style sightings are extremely rare, so we need to appreciate every detail.

    Just a few days after debuting her short haircut, Alexa attended the Balenciaga Fall/Winter 2022 show. Her cropped hair was highlighted by blue and purple eyeshadow, a dark red lip, statement earrings, a choker and a button-up top styled to be off the shoulders. Contrasting the simple but elegant top, she spiced up the 'fit with what looked like a leather skirt over leather trousers, an ode to a Y2K trend.
