At first glance, the Alexander Wang Resort 2015 collection can be considered as edgy and futuristic as the designer's past lines. Yet for those who are interested in a little more details, he revealed at his presentation in New York on June 3, 2014, that he was inspired by the care instructions found on clothing labels. In particular, how things can often become ruined by washing machines.
To thwart these occurrences, the Alexander Wang Resort 2015 collection is full of tie-dye patterns, boyish patchwork canvas pieces and leather t-shirts with raw edges. The lookbook itself was shot in a laundromat to bring even more attention to this influence on his latest line. Of course, it is as fierce as ever.
