Alexandra Classen (Parent CAS’26)

Member, Global Parents Council

New York-born Alexandra Classen moved to Zurich at an early age.  

She studied at the School of Art in Photography and worked as a model for several years where she developed a strong passion for fashion, before creating her company Girlsmusthave. 

Alexandra lives in Geneva, and the swimwear collection she designed was initiated on her acknowledgment that many women in her network had gone through breast surgery and could not find an elegant bathing suit that would make them look and feel great while having the ability to incorporate a prosthesis. The market currently only caters to “medical” swimsuits that are not fashionable in their design. This collection has allowed Alexandra to combine her passion for fashion with compassion, and she can now offer glamorous swimwear for all women- with a difference.
