Alexander Wang F/W 2010 Campaign

Alexander Wang, who sprung out a few seasons ago, has been and continues to be the designer with relentlessly artful pieces that can not go unnoticed.
For his first video campaign, he places model Abby Lee Kershaw in an abstracted view of Wall Street. Despite the many distractions, including excessive wind, flying newspapers and body movements, one can't help but notice the attention to details in his designs or his choice of fabrics.

The collection, which was noticeably more fine tuned than his previous collections, still gave way to his signature cutout designs, while incorporating them with fine suit detailing and a lot of pinstripes. His choice of fabrics wins my heart for the extreme use of black velvet, lace and sheer materials.
With this young designer's influence clearly prevalent from previous collections, you know we all fell in love with the "Trackie" style pants and dresses from last season, there will be no surprise when velvet creeps its way back into our closets this fall.

That said, the addition of cranberry velvet guaranteed that this was definitely my favourite dress from the collection he showed at NY Fashion Week early this year.
