ABOUT:

TELL US ABOUT YOU!

Hi!!! My name is Allegra Bertani!! I’ve been in NYC for two years now, living in the ‘Shwick. I’m a first-gen American, and go visit my parents and family regularly in England and Brazil. I spend a lot of time styling, scheming, and shooting- clothes are my passion and I have racks upon racks in my room of authentic vintage and designer, I love planning and Pinteresting looks and concepts, and I adore photographing them even more. Most days you can find me editing at Casetta.

WHERE ARE YOU FROM?

I am from Reno, Nevada, but split my teen years with Los Angeles #valleygirl I also spent a lot of time in Brazil growing up

WHAT DO YOU DO?

I am an editorial fashion photographer and stylist!! I’ve worked with a lot of my favorite brands and a lot of your favorite tiktok girlies ;)

WHAT ARE THREE THINGS YOU CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT?

Okay okay… I can’t live without fur coats (second hand, duh!), airplanes (I get restless), and drunk cigarettes (you know the night is going really well if you see me smoking).

CELEBRITY CRUSH LIST. READY, SET, GO.

ADAM DRIVER, the Please Don’t Destroy boys, King Krule, Laura Prepon… uh and Jake Webber

QUICK. WHAT'S A SECRET YOU'VE NEVER TOLD ANYONE.

I had a teacher in high school ask me if he could marry me. Twice. I used to do content creation for his wife after school. They are currently getting a divorce.

LOVE OR MONEY?

Love.

CRAZIEST STORY ABOUT AN OLD FLING?

Okay I have a few… I had a long-term boyfriend that I actually was gonna move to NYC to be with (that’s a different story). A few weeks before I was supposed to move across the country to be with him, I got a frantic phone call from him saying he SENT A NUDE TO A BOT PRETENDING TO BE A GIRL ON INSTA AND THAT NOW SHE WAS BLACKMAILING HIM FOR MONEY WITH IT.

I think he sent her like, $300 before he called me. I thought it was so funny I excused him for cheating on me by sending a nude to what he thought was a real, random girl.

BIGGEST TOXIC TRAIT?

I lose interest the second someone expresses interest in me. I honestly get kind of mean, like go read a book or something; stop hitting me up. The second they stop showing interest is when I get interested, though. Sorry.

LAST TEXT YOU SENT?

“Ok no poop. Got it.”

HYSTERIA HEARTBREAKER OR LOVER?

Hysteria Heartbreaker.

HIDDEN TALENT?

I was a competitive Irish dancer for 7 years.
