After having unchained passions last season, Alexander Wang was – at this beginning of fashion week New Yorkean – to sign a collection worthy of the attention which it causes from now on….

40 passages – 40 mannequins: only largest allow this light snobbery, and yet that did not prevent Alexander Wang from offering this luxury. Consequently, the young New Yorkean is not entitled any more to the error: a collection in on this side that of last winter would make us point finger this small excess of vanity… Always it is that we are undoubtedly on the show more connected season: to believe the spectators of them, all the New Yorkean hype – and much more still – was given go to discover the opus be of the pet of Anna Wintour.
A few hours before the procession, the designer had declared that its cloakroom would be coloured much more than the precedent; we thus expected to vibrate version Technicolor… It will be finally more acidulous than pepsy. It is noted in any case that the next summer will be always street – and undoubtedly grunge – even if Alexander Wang chose to forsake the New Yorkean to take as a starting point the Florida nineties. One discovers silhouettes out of shorts thus cuts high and micro sweat full, as well as dresses and skirt stretch very Miami Vice…

In addition, the codes having made its success are given to the last style: one can thus note that the duet shorts/blazer preserves all its effectiveness. One also notices that leather – as well as the duffel – replaced the frayed denim, than the naked legs yielded the place to sticking laces and than silk makes its entry while taking a lead in looks neo-grunge, in their bringing a key in good mannerss. However, some are the matters used, the girl Alexander Wang remains undoubtedly a rebellious young woman in leather boots, carbonaceous eyes and scarf of biker.
Only small regret: this collection does not seem as not succeeded as the preceding one. Certain silhouettes come very close to facility thus, while others can be labelled of “already considering”. Admittedly, the show is successful and the parts of the creator will not be long in being found in the series mode (effect of buzz obliges), nevertheless the magic of the procession autumn/winter 08-09 was gone from there.
II is necessary to say that Wang multiplied the activities these last months, launching a line of shoes as well as a line (a), which perhaps prevented it from digging its collection upstream, remaining comfortably on its assets…
