Designer Max Alexander is the youngest person in the room at most places he goes to professionally and now it seems he might also be the one with the most world records in a lot of them too.

That’s because at 10 years old, he’s already gathered four Guinness World Records for his work in couture, including two for his show on September 14.

The child prodigy released his first original fabrics collection in collaboration with Mood Fabrics, making him the youngest designer to ever do so.

As per a press release, the collection had 15 different sustainable materials such as BCI Cotton, European Flax linen, EcoVero viscose, and recycled polyester faux fur.

“At the core of this collection is the idea that one small choice can make a big difference,” the young designer said in a statement. “Sustainability doesn’t have to mean being perfect. It can be about the tiny choices we make every day and changing little habits that add up to something much bigger.”

But Max wasn’t done. At the New York show, he stood with a sewing machine and proceeded to thread it in a record-shattering 10.16 seconds. This record was confirmed by an adjudicator from Guinness present at the event who gave the designer a certificate amid applause and cheers from the crowd.

Earlier, the designer became the youngest in history to display at the prestigious Paris Fashion Week in March.

The showcased collection carried similar themes of sustainability, “90 per cent [of the pieces were] made from sustainable materials and inspired by flowers! I used deadstock, surplus, recycled bags and biodegradable fabrics,” Max said at the time, adding that the collection took “about half a year to complete”.

His first record came in November 2023, when at seven years of age he became the youngest person to design a runway show. But that wasn’t too much of a shock as he’d been sewing and designing clothes since he was four years old.

By the time he got his first acknowledgement from Guinness, Max had already made over a hundred designs, staged his own shows and sold pieces internationally.

During an interview that year, he jokingly told People he believed he might have been Guccio Gucci — the founder of Gucci — in a past life. “I actually was,” he said at the time.

The star has since been honoured on the TIME100 creators list in 2026 and has made clients out of celebrities like Sharon Stone and Debra Messing.

The designer’s new fabric line is available online at Mood Fabrics’ website and will be made available at the brand’s US locations soon.
