styling and/or model much better second time round,

can't say the same for the clothing though

 

[helmut.newton]

I agree ponytrot, the style.com presentation was much more appealing.

I almost feel like WWD had an agenda. They wanted to make the collection look as tacky as possible.

I don't find the collection groundbreaking but Alexander Wang isn't about that. It's about creating a luxury in an everyday wardrobe. I like that its not pretentious and obviously he doesn't take himself too seriously if those bike-shorts are anything to go by.

I like it though because its restrained but cool and approachable.

what is up with the hype around this boy? ... it seriously leaves a bad taste in my mouth.

 

[happyguy]

those tights look well dodgy...

i don't think Tom Ford would agree with that choice of shoes.

edit:
checked out the second set...

is he kidding me???????

that leather vest???

those stockings???

an oversized cardigan over a minidress?????

who needs a powder blue jumpsuit????

the whole thing basically stopped looking nice after the second batch of photos posted from style.com.

After seeing pictures of the full collection, I don't think it's that bad..I like a lot of the pieces actually.

i like the coral dress...

as an overall collection i don't think it's terrible...
but i'm nowhere near loving it either...

there are a few pieces here and there that could work..
but those sheer bike shorts looking things need to go

I think this is his strongest collection to date

 

[nylonbits]

some beautiful pieces...yet some are cringe-worthy. i don't have much to say about this...i'll have to see the clothes in person because pictures don't normally do his clothes justice imo.

Not one thing excited me or made me want to add it to my wardrobe.

 

[blue.]

i want to date an alexander wang girl! i love it all.

Third outfit looks like Hugh Hefner... the bustlines are nice though.

 

[Blueberry Muffin]

Better with new images but nothing interesting.I would like to puke on those sheer things and open toe mules? What are those anyway?

 

[goldlion]

some of the pre-fall pieces are available now on nordstrom.com for pre-order
