Alexander Wang: RTW Fall 2013.


The always adorable Alexander Wang showed his Ready-to-Wear Fall 2013 collection last week during NYFW. It was a pretty much colorless collection, with mainly black, white, and grey. I feel like he was really excited about furry, flannely things while creating this collection.

Pretty sure this is his first runway debut as Creative Director for Balenciaga. Not sure how I feel about the line though. Some of the pieces are great, like the metallicy see through top below, and the interesting all grey sweat suit, but the furry arm things? What is that? I liked most of the pieces as separates but I couldn't wear many of the things the way Wang paired them on the runway. The shoes are quite interesting though.

What do you think?

Alexander Wang is the New Creative Director for Balenciaga.

































It was announced Monday that at 28 years old, Alexander Wang has been named creative director at the Parisian fashion house Balenciaga. Let the trumpets sound. He is the first person of Asian descent to reach these ranks. I love seeing talented people breaking down barriers.

Wang is "deeply honored to embark on this new role for a brand and house that I have such great admiration and respect for." Isabelle Guichot, CEO of Balenciaga, believed Wang was the best man for the job. She says, "We wanted someone with global thinking, a citizen of the world, and someone who could understand the digital world and the direction of fashion and retail tomorrow."

Wang's New York based signature collection will continue while he is at Balenciaga. He is best known for creating edgy, yet easy to wear street wear and has become widely popular in recent years.

At Balenciaga, Wang will oversee womenswear and accessory design, naturally, seeing as though he won Council of Fashion Designers of America awards in those categories and Womenswear Designer of the Year in 2009. He'll also oversee menswear and he'll help craft Balenciaga's overall image.

Sidenote: Doesn't Alexander Wang look like a pleasant Asian woman? Am I wrong for this? He's so adorable to me.

Catch the Blues.

The Blues

1. Wild West Top 2. Suede Ankle Boots 3. Dr. Martens Boots 4.Sparkle and Fade Peplum Dress 5. Two-tone Jeans 6. Midnight Metallic Pants 7. Glitter Pants 8. Cambridge Satchel Co. 11" Satchel

This fall/ winter season you should get into the moody color of blue. I like the deeper cobalt blues this time of year. It plays into all the jewel tones like the burgundys and emeralds we've seen become popular this season.

Popular color combinations are blue and black and blue... with more blue. Just pair different shades of blue all in one outfit, head to toe.

Balenciaga: Fall 2012.

Balenciaga 'Wave' Top

Balenciaga is a genius in fashion. So fun and edgy.

So when they revealed their new futuristic designs for Fall 2012, it was love at first sight for fashionistas all over the world. And during Spring '13 Fashion Week, the 'Wave' Rebel Top was all the rave.

They also have this fine ass German Shepard jacket (pictured below) that is just as I said: FINE.
The Balenciaga Iconic Dog Teddy Jacket retails at $3150. The image, the shape, the leather: It's a winner.
