Can we talk about Alexander Wang for a second? Rhetorical question, I’m going to anyways (haha). So this is the first men’s collection from Balenciaga since Wang was named creative director in 2012 and I don’t think he disappointed. His other brands (Alexander Wang and T by Alexander Wang) were also nice. I think the three of them collectively painted a picture.
Balenciaga was definitely the most formal of the three. Focusing on blazers and jackets, Mr. Wang was able to give his own touch to the brand and it was easily noticeable.
T by Alexander Wang was the most ready to wear. It also looked the most comfortable. With a mixture of shorts, sweaters and windbreakers, you weren’t going to see a suit anywhere near this show.
Alexander Wang is pretty much a love child between the two aforementioned brands. Athletic wear but dressed up a bit thanks to materials and construction. -Micah
P.S. – I hope you guys are all enjoying the runway coverage (if not, I’ll be back to the regularly scheduled program shortly :))!
