Alexander Wang teamed up with Natasha Poly and Victoria Traina to celebrate the launch of friend Ryan Korban's new interior design website last night at the Soho Grand. Ryan, who memorably gave a tour of his own place to the Selby last year, is upping his presence online and expanding his design profile with projects like decorating Natasha's apartment. Naturally, the bash had a heavy models to mortals ratio — Erin Wasson arrived in a leopard-print fedora and made a bee-line for the man of the evening, while Hanne Gaby Odile mingled with Jessica Stam, Maryna Linchuk and Daiane Conterato. Victoria was joined by sister Vanessa, while Zoe Kravitz toasted Ryan from Alexander's side with a few mini-champagnes.
Cushnie et Ochs sent ultra revealing slashed dresses down the runway for spring 2010. To get a similar—if a bit understated—version of the look, try Alexander Wang's mesh cut out jersey skirt or Topshop's asymmetrical long sleeve mini. For the even more modest-minded, Alexander McQueen offers a turtle neck dress with sharp slits just above the elbow.
Motorcycle jackets are one of those keep-forever wardrobe staples that get better with age. If you find yourself in the market for a new biker jacket or vest this fall, we suggest looking for updates on the classic—in leather or suede—such as strong shoulders (Emanuel Ungaro), studded hardware and epaulettes (Alexander Wang), bright colors (Doma), and quilted details (Elise Overland and Topshop).
The Council of Fashion Designers of America welcomed its newest members yesterday during a party at New York's Four Seasons restaurant. The 31 recent inductees—including Alexander Wang, Christina and Swaim Hutson, Erin Fetherston, Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, Chris Benz, Jenna Lyons, Lyn Devon, Koi Suwannagate, and Maria Pinto—were welcomed by CFDA president, Diane Von Furstenberg, who promised "I am your mother, mentor and leader."
Alexander Wang presented his spring 2010 collection to a packed house. Among them, models (Erin Wasson and Liya Kebede), photographers (Terry Richardson and Inez and Vinoodh), actresses (Rachel McAdams looking very friendly with Anna Wintour), fellow designers (Diane von Furstenberg) and fashion industry elite (Julia Restoin-Roitfeld, Katie Grand and Jen Brill).
Back in June, the 2008 CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund winner cited his work with the Gap as an influence on his all-american resort collection. For spring he took the thought one step further designing sportswear as interpretations of locker room gear — think football player shoulders on a cropped gray sweatshirt, high-waisted leather lace-up shorts, red and white rugby-striped sweaters, gray athletic bras and Jockey-inspired men's underwear, a shiny black boxing robe, and a letter "A" crested varsity jacket — each worn with cut-out knee-high socks and peep toe booties in leopard or black.
Frankie Rayder and Angela Lindvall were among the models who walked in Wang's show, wearing their hair in loose messy braids over one shoulder like young soccer players fresh from the scrimmage field.
Alexander Wang's first foray into menswear has been revealed--his T By Alexander Wang line now boasts menswear. WWD reminds us that Wang's original concept was to design unisex clothing which means that the line was a long time coming. The first T By Alexander Wang men's collection keeps with Wang's signature glamour-athletic look. We're pretty sure those leather shorts will sell out in a heartbeat--at least in New York.
