Alexander Wang Resort 2010

[fierceboi]

Rather than bulldoze forward with his edgy, aggressive stance of late, Alexander Wang channeled a new vibe for resort: classic American sportswear. But preppy, done the Wang way, is still wonderfully street chic and a little subversive. He took the twisted patterns from cable knits, for instance, and applied them as metal embellishments on a tank dress or in a burnout print on a slouchy T-shirt. “It’s the spirit of how we approach classics,” he explained

The entire collection is up on style.com!!

Alexander Wang's latest Resort collection isn't completely devoid of black party dresses, but they certainly play a more minor role than they have in seasons past. The CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund winner chalked up his newfound interest in all-American sportswear—think chinos, chambray, denim, and T-shirts—to his experience collaborating with the Gap. (That mini-collection hits the retail chain's stores on June 16, ladies.) Naturally, Wang put his own downtown-cool spin on his Resort classics, pairing an almost-preppy nautical stripe sweater with a wrap skirt in midnight blue sequins or tweaking a traditional fisherman's vest into a satin and mesh romper. As for those black dresses, the designer had quality if not quantity: The best of the bunch was a draped and wrapped number that exposes a lot of leg and nails the elusive dressed-up yet effortless vibe that Wang has so successfully made his signature.

I really enjoy this. It's a pretty strong and dynamic collection for a Resort collection, and there are lots of interesting facets about this ie. the croched-like jumpers and the evening wear.

I like it though not feeling the model at all.

Some looks are so Ghesquiere for Balenciaga (FW09, FW08). Meh. I prefer Nicholas' take on in, thank you very much.

^yea, i thought of balenciaga as well
i do like some of the draped dresses. the collection is a step up from previous collections, at least it is more interesting for what the fame of the name is worth

This is nice. I love the suede bag with studs underneath, it's gorgeous!

And look #15 is my favorite
