That which had lately known to make the blazer impossible to circumvent seems to be detached little by little from its product fetish, with the profit of a cloakroom more sportswear. In fact, recent collaboration between Alexander Wang and Gap – which plunged the creator in the middle of the casual roots of America – gave certainly him desire for going further. For the next summer, Wang indeed decided to pay homage to the US national sport: American football…
A few days before its procession, Alexander Wang did not hesitate to declare that its collection would be timeless and traditional. It was then difficult to imagine that this last prepared with us rejouer “most beautiful of the combat” of Gregory Allen Howard…
Thus do not seek there trousers with grips and tailors, you would return bredouilles from there. Indeed, under the eye of gratin hype of the fashion (Lauren Santo Domingo, Julia Restoin-Roitfeld or Giovanna Battaglia), it is indeed an army of pom pom girls to the paces of sexy quarterbacks – and not of model little girls – who started to survey the catwalk.
For the summer 2010, Alexander Wang seems to be plunged in the middle of the racks of the football teams American, in order to detail there the least part of their equipment. Once the lexicon sporty assimilated, the young designer is then undertook to combine the dress code of the players in ready-made clothes mode. Apparently filled with enthusiasm by its idea, it is nothing prohibits: recasting of the oval balloon in small pocket with the use of the leggings like leitmotiv while passing by the red and white stripes with the US colors, all was exploited.
However, if these quotations are not as thorough as those of Alexander McQueen at the time of its procession spring/be 2005, Wang however comes very close to first degree, sometimes forgetting to transform the exercise of style into true ready-made clothes presentation. Thus, with its jackets khaki tied out of skirts, its cotton duffel rigidifying some total looks, its life jackets well too basic and its joggings three bands, the designer does not go clearly rather far.
This said, the procession remains overall succeeded, of many futures best-sellers eclipsing the few awkwardnesses made by Alexander Wang. It should be said that by taking as a starting point equipment also style and structured, it had been complicated not to extract something from it from good. One thus greets the sublimes shorts out of leather taking again the gimmick protections of hips slipping under the trousers, the corseté sweat combining perfectly sportswear and sexyness as well as the divine out-of-date leather jacket pointing out cuttings of the épaulières.
And if Alexander Wang in fact of the tons with its signals of cheerleaders combining maximum breadth and rustle borrowed from their pompoms or with its cape connected to a leather cap by a zip, that does not prevent it from composing of the effective and purified behaviours, which will certainly have convinced the purchasers of Selfridges.
One thinks in particular of the duet gray sweat shouldered and corseté shorts, or of the mini cotton dress with leather cuttings. Without speaking about the accessories – zippées boots open toes, leather mask-ears, mini ankle boots richelieu and leopard – which as always diablement give us desire for subtilizing them in backstage…
Unequal, but joke to look at, this collection will surely allow Alexander Wang to keep its place with the hit-parade of the most snuffed creators fashion sphere…
