I se...I still feel such a disconnect in his design. I see the growth and maturity in pieces of his throughout the Collection, and then I see the same repetitive shapes and silhouette that we've seen in previous seasons recycled throughout his Collection. It's almost like he reverts back to what he's done so many times before without exploring it. There's something that I feel isn't connecting the way I always hope it will in his garments. They're too boxy, I don't see how the clothes communicate with eachother, there's a fluency that is missing somewhere...Season after season I am frustrated with Alexander Wang because I'll see small sparks of genius, and then they're extinguished by something poorly thought out, and heavy handed. I saw him take strides this season; the hair and makeup were both gorgeous and much less distracting than in seasons before, the heels were beautiful...But I'm still not sold on everything I saw in his Collection. I believe he still has much more maturing to do as a Designer, but I thought by now I would've seen his growth.Amberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11613377688911763793noreply@blogger.com
