Alexander Wang

A favorite of hip young urbanites the world over, Alexander Wang was established by its namesake in New York in 2007. The winner of 2008’s CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund, Wang quickly became known for his casually chic, grunge-tinged collections. Worn by the designer’s off-duty model and socialite friends, Wang’s sporty, relaxed separates generated a healthy amount of buzz from the get-go, buoyed of course by Anna Wintour’s blessing-of-coolness. Since then, Wang has impressed critics not only with his keen eye for tailoring but with enviable technological savvy skills, consistently improving upon the look and feel of his directional, downtown pieces.
