My absolute absolute favourite right now is Alexander Wang - can you tell? I find him incredibly amazing and intriguing - he is TWENTY SIX for starters, and happened to involve himself in the exact niche that was missing out of the American society  - casual, cool, and downtown, the perfect MOD (Model off duty) look. His bags are to die for and his shoes are killer, and I could talk all night about him, but I won't.

In the wake of Alexander Wang being named the Best New Menswear Designer by GQ and the CFDA, not to mention the opening of his first ever flagship store, the designer will launch his first ready to wear men's collection this fall. This launch has been highly anticipated ever since his first hint of casual menswear in his T collection three seasons ago. Expect to see Wang's signature style - "It started with a lot of utilitarian references, something that I've always felt a close attraction to. And the idea of mixing - I've always liked to take something very dressy and bring it down; take something very casual and elevate it". This translates to suit pants that are actually tracksuit bottoms in utility nylon or leather, outerwear as traditional overcoats tricked out with varsity-jacket leather sleeves. Sports jackets in wool felt, slubby sweatpants with baggy, knee-length leather shorts.


This is what dreams are made of!
