Alexander Wang launches Menswear collection

New York based designer Alexander Wang, after a successful launch of his first stand alone store and  his continuous evolvement of the Alexander Wang empire,is now moving into menswear.

Reported literally hours ago on Style, the designer who took the fashion world by storm with his minimalist sportswear approach to design, will launch the Alexander Wang Menswear collection for Fall 2011 soon. The capsule collection will pick up elements from his previous endeavours with 'T' and 'Alexander Wang' and will follow the same style & aesthetic of  chic low-key utilitarian basics that are designed with excellent quality with Wang's contemporary take on the classics.

We are already practically drooling over it, the collection will be available at Dover Street Market come next season!

A tremendous occasion is on the hazy horizon of fashion, promising to add to the already spectacular transformation of menswear.

Alexander Wang - the man who single handedly transformed jersey into a lust worthy fabric for women, and reinvigorated the life of leather in fashion - whilst pioneering a famously androgynous look for females is venturing into the jungle of men’s fashion.

The current designer sweetheart has previewed his menswear collections for spring 2010 in a short video featuring the facial talents of Vincent LaCrocq, the musical genius of Black Rebel Motorcycle Club and the cinematography styling of David Armstrong.

The clip can only be described as a heart wrenching flirt with the edgiest end of fashion. Wang has stayed faithful to the sport luxe look which propelled him into so bright a spot light, fluid jerseys are gently hanging from LaCroq’s languid frame contradicted by raw seams and cut up sweatshirts.

The backwards cap and casually loose hanging attire is a readily awaited nostalgic nod back to the nineties, capitalized with the youthful choice of location. All in all a comfortable entrance for Wang who has confirmed the oversized look as an essential trend for the impending spring of 2010.
