You have seen her on the Dig Jumps, Dirty Weekend and incredibly sexy Grid Girl tee. Now get to know the girl behind the face (and bum) of the beautiful Alana Collins.
How long have you been modeling?
Almost 3 years now, I LOVE IT! As I’m a full-time uni student, I’ve had to cut back on shoots, but I am extremely passionate and always excited about modeling. Seeing my face in campaigns, brands and advertising gives me a thrill I cannot explain. Just recently, I’m tending to steer towards more fashion modeling rather than ‘bikini-girl on the beach’ style photo shoots. I have done a little acting as well, so I plan to continue that and build up a whole new career path.
Do you ride as well?
No I don’t, but id really like to get into riding, sounds dangerous ;-) Although I’ve done my fair share off UNIT shoots on bikes, which definitely counts, right?
How do you feel about riding on the back of dirt bikes?
I have actually ridden on the back of a friend’s bike before, such good fun! Scary though. I don’t think id last long going over jumps though. I’m a bit of a girly-girl.
How does it feel to be a model for UNIT, knowing that you’re on their tee shirts and in their videos promoting the brand?
Modeling for UNIT has been amazing, such a great team of people to work with, easy to get along with and just a funny bunch of guys.
How does it feel to have not only your face, but bum on the front of shirts all over Australia and the world?
Ha Ha Ha, feels great. The ‘Gird Girl’ tee is definitely one of the most sexiest/revealing shots I’ve done for UNIT, but I’m so happy with how they all turned out, and was excited to find out that that some of them were the highest selling of all UNIT tees… YAY!
What about being on so many men’s bodies?
Haha great ;-) I’ve actually seen a lot of guys wearing the shirts when I’ve been out, some recognized me, some were just so stoked and wanted me to sign their shirt, for a second I felt famous… haha!
What did your parents first think of you being a model and where they supportive?
They were surprisingly very supportive and proud; my dad went into the UNIT store the other week and said he was overwhelmed and proud to see his daughter plastered everywhere around the shop. They want me to do something I enjoy and they couldn’t be more proud of how far I’ve come as a model. It’s important to me that the people around me are comfortable and supportive of my modeling.
With UNIT’s controversial ad campaigns being shut down in the past, do you think to have gorgeous girls on clothes for all to see should be banded?
Not at all. To some extent yes, nude or pornography on tees is offensive to most, but UNIT’s tees are never pornographic, controversial yes but I think it makes UNIT more unique. The new 420 Blitz range and video is incredible and I think it’s a great new direction for UNIT, what’s wrong with raising a few eyebrows and a little controversy?
What is the best thing about modeling for UNIT?
The exposure and new experiences I’ve gained, seeing my face and bum on the shirts of men around the country pretty much tops the list of best things about modeling for UNIT haha!
What is your favorite UNIT tee so far?
I love Kat Cross’s ‘Saturate Tee’, if I was a guy id buy it, actually I’d probably buy it and wear it now (She’s hot!). My favorite tee that I’m featured on would have to be ‘Dirty Weekend’, apparently its sold amazingly!
