Today we will get acquainted with the American brand of a young Californian who has managed to conquer the whole world in just one decade.

About brand

Alexander Wang is a popular brand, founded by a talented designer, whose last name can be pronounced as Wang and Wong, but the first option is still preferable.

Alexander was born in San Francisco and from childhood began to be interested in sewing and modeling clothes. Parents supported his son’s hobbies in every way, so he had the opportunity to do what he loved as a teenager.

In 2002, Wang moved to New York and entered the Parson School of Design for a course to the famous Mark Jacobs. True, he failed to finish school - Alexander started creating his own clothes, abandoned his studies and was expelled.

But the young designer did not lose heart - in 2005 he registered his own brand Alexander Wang, becoming one of the youngest American designers.

Two years later, he presented his first official collection at New York Fashion Week. It was dominated by models in the unisex style, and simple knitwear was used for tailoring, so the ill-wishers instantly called him a "T-shirt designer."

But this could not overshadow the effect - critics and journalists immediately responded positively, so that clothing spread out over more than 200 stores across the States.

In 2008, the designer released a collection of accessories, and a year later he began to create shoes. At the same time, he launched a relaxed line of basic clothing T by Alexander Wang.

At the end of 2012, a second brand boutique was opened in Beijing, and Alexander himself was appointed art director of the Balenciaga Fashion House.

The designer himself boasts countless collaborations with various brands of clothing, accessories, cosmetics, equipment and furniture.

The Alexander Wang brand is not only its creator, but a whole team of more than 100 people.that deal with various issues. Almost all designers work this way, but Wang is one of the few who does not forget to mention it.

Fashion magazines and stylists call the brand's style “urban chic,” Wang says that he is inspired by the style of grunge, hip-hop, rock, street aesthetics and ordinary people. His clothes are always simple and concise, there are no unnecessary bizarre details in it, and you rarely find handmade items.

Alexander thinks that “it’s great to create intricate clothes, but if you can’t wear it every day, then what’s the point?” And it’s hard not to agree with him.

Clothing collections

Sport shoes

Alexander says he remembers his first Adidas sneakers. - since the school was a strict form, they were his personal means of expression. Years later, he still continues to wear sneakers and sneakers, but now he is personally developing their designs.

Releasing the latest collection, the Alexander Wang team tried to improve them as much as possible so that they would not lose their shape for as long as possible. They invented a new approach to modeling sneakers, deconstructing the sole, reducing the volume around the ankle and releasing the tongue.

  • For example, the RUN model has a unique lacing system, which is attached to the heel, and a toe insert, tight-fitting ankle.
  • The white model is called RUN CLEAN and, unlike the previous one, does not have laces at all. It is more like a sock, tight-fitting leg.

Sneakers with the simple name Skate look very stylish. They have a thick rubber outsole, voluminous lacing and a wide range of colors, which allows you to choose several options for everyday wear.

Sandals

Alexander Wang sandals have always had unprecedented success. So, in 2013, the brand released a sophisticated and, at the same time, very sexy model, which conquered all fashionistas. These were refined gladiators with straps around the ankle and at the knee.

Due to the presence of only two straps, they did not look cumbersome, but on the contrary - visually slender and lengthened legs.

The designer always skillfully picks up fashion trends, adding to them his own zest. This summer, coarse heavy sandals with thick soles are in fashion, and you will find one of the most spectacular incarnations of this brand. Sandals decorated with metal rivets are a chic urban option for every day.

Unconditional hit of his previous collection - sandals, sandals and mules with a cut on the heel. It is not surprising that they created a real sensation in the fashion world. The range is huge: high and low heels, thick and thin, concise and decorated with marabou feathers - in the best traditions of the 90s.

Bags and backpacks

Alexander Wang bags are always original shapes and a bold metal finish.

Like his clothes, they are aimed at young modern women who live in the rhythm of the modern metropolis. Therefore, most models are universal - they are suitable for business, everyday and sports bows.

In 2009, the iconic Rocco Duffel bag was invented. This is a tote bag, the bottom of which is covered with 95 brass spikes. The model has long passed into the category of must-have for fashionistas around the world, and the waiting list for it is open all the time!

Some time later, a smaller version of this model called the Rockie. It comes with a long strap, so it can be worn on the shoulder, like a crossbody bag.

Spikes and metal fittings have become an integral part of bags and backpacks Alexander Wang. For example, a shopper bag was recently introduced, covered with a “net” with round rivets and a bag-bag decorated with a massive chain.

In a word, with accessories of this brand you can be modern and bold, but the main thing - you will always remain stylish.

Glasses

Sunglasses of this brand are always simple and concise, but each model has its own unique feature.

The “kitties” of a strict geometric form called Zoro look unusual.

Alexander Wang for H & M Stylische Sunglasses With the Sports Bands New - this is the name of the sunglasses model, which was released in cooperation with the Swedish brand.

These are glasses with simple lenses in shape, but with unusual wide arms, on which the designer's name is engraved - Wang, and a wide strap at the back, which also carries the brand name.

Perhaps the most unusual were the glasses for winter holidays, which are decorated with fur. More precisely, in the Mink Fur Sunglasses model, the fur rim plays the role of arches, securely fixing glasses on the head. The color range is diverse - from white and black, to pale pink.
