Alicia Rickter

Forget about the Renaissance man – with Alicia Rickter, it’s all about the Renaissance woman. Brown-haired and brown-eyed, with a sweet, heart-shaped face, Alicia wears many different hats – she’s an artist, a conversationalist, a devoted friend, and above all, an adventurer. “Being a perfectionist, I push myself and test life’s limits,” she says. “I want to work on myself till one day I’m satisfied with who I’ve become.” Here at Playboy, we’re plenty satisfied with Alicia – after a single meeting, we were so hooked that we made her our Miss October 1995. As far as her Playmate status goes, Alicia’s stance is more than sociopolitical. “Doing Playboy is an experiment,” she says thoughtfully. “Is it socially correct? How far should a woman push her sexuality? I don’t know, but I’m enjoying finding out – I’m going to milk it!” As for her other, more conventional ambitions, Miss Rickter is looking forward to her future – when she finishes college, she’d love to be a wife and mother, but her future husband must be an intellectual. “A man who enters a room with charm and presence shakes me up,” she says. “I love intelligent men with big hands and big smiles!” We don’t know about you guys, but when we look at Alicia, we’re all smiles.
