Alexander Wang A/W 2015
Alex Wang hammered home a molten collection of weighty metallic embellishments
Mood board: Few designers have managed to speak the language of the youth as long as Alexander Wang has. This season, Wang returned to these roots by delivering a moody, punk/goth collection that played heavily with metal embellishments.
Scene setting: A tunnel of matte black corrugated steel and a pulsing industrial techno soundtrack set the tone as models pounded down the runway in thick-soled platform boots and hair strewn across their faces dressed in mostly all-black ensembles.
Best in show: Double-breasted jackets, robe coats and the bibs of dresses were decorated with round metal studs, which were occasionally placed to resemble piercings. Smaller studs were also used to trace the stitching of quilted jackets and cable knit sweaters, thus bestowing these staple pieces with a razor sharp edge. A final series of fine chainmail dresses, trimmed with studs and strategically placed black panels, worn with molten metallic bomber jackets, hammered home that this season was far from child's play.
