Ask most 7-year-olds who (or what) Gucci is and youd draw blank staresbut not fromMax Alexander.
Once Max had his mannequin, he quickly got to work designing dresses.
He just started making dresses, it was the craziest thing,Madison recalled.
I ran and got my husband.
I was like, Come out of your office, you have to see what Max is doing.
It’s crazy.'
Max has fashion in his blood.
It turns out his grandparents were in the fashion business in Montreal, she explains.
The boy is a voracious learner with a natural ability to sew, and he quickly surpassed Madisons skills.
She enrolled him in classes at their local sewing shop, where he learned more about garment construction.
But his innate ability to know what looks good on the human body is all his own.
Although hes just a first grader, Max is looking toward his future.
He dreams of being the head of the House of Gucci or having his own atelier.
Considering his drive and talents, his future looks bright.
In fact, he says he was Gucci in a past life.
