Fashion designer Alex Perry showed off his incredibly buff physique as he stepped out at the AusFitness Expo in Sydney over the weekend.
The renowned designer looked strikingly different as he showed off his muscular frame while posing with two models at the fitness and expo trade show.
He sported a fitted graphic T-shirt that emphasised his toned chest and arms, which he paired with a black jacket and dark jeans.
He completed his look with his signature oversized black sunglasses and a black baseball cap, giving him a sharp yet understated vibe.
Alex often works with personal trainer Simon Di Natale, who is a bodybuilder, at City Gym in Sydney’s Darlinghurst to keep in shape.
Known for his love of fitness, Alex previously revealed his motivation for training hard at the gym, revealing it helps his mental health as well as his physical prowess.
He told SBS: ‘Going to the gym and working out just keeps me in peak physical and mental condition for whatever I’m faced with in the fashion industry.
‘After the initial year of going to the gym, I grew to hate it and I had to drag myself there, but I really enjoy it now.
‘It makes me less stressed and then I can go home and feel normal.’

Greek-Australian fashion icon Alex, whose real name is Alexandros Pertsinidis, has been married to his wife Mary for over three decades.
Speaking to the Sydney Morning Herald about his successful marriage, Alex shared that Mary was actually a driving force in the early days of his multimillion-dollar fashion empire.
Describing their different approaches to business, he said: ‘She is methodical and likes to plan. I make decisions in an instant and go with my gut.’
Perry’s instincts at times led their marriage into dangerous territory, especially when he made risky career decisions without checking in with Mary first.
‘I don’t know how she didn’t kick me out,’ he confessed.
