Pre-fall collections are starting to pop up slowly, but the only post worthy one (so far) is Alexander Wang's collection. It features a more mature aesthetic and in a way, more work oriented clothes. All in shades of black and grey. I loved how he merged a cable knit with a finer knit in the first look, a bit reminiscent of his denim/leather jacket. The third look reminds me of this Complex Geometries piece. OH MY! The parka obsession continues; this one is ammmmazing, and it's in the most perfect shade of grey! And finally, how could you resist the dress with the cape? so cute! These were the only looks I liked, some of the other ones were a bit boring, or just plain ugly. WTF at these shoes. Normally, his collections leave me out of breath; from all the amazingness but this one was just lackluster. Hopefully he goes back to his downtown cool roots for fall!
ps. only TWO more days of school left!
