Carnivores

Alexander Wang Fall 2009

This is the collection I have been waiting for! Especially after NYmag asked the designers to use one word to describe their collections & his was " Carnivores ".

Firstly let's look at the non-earring earring collaboration wit Paris Kain of AbraxasRex.

I hardly wear earrings as I am really afraid of piercing my ears & clip ons are just really uncomfortable! Alexander Wang's version, which wraps around the ear just solves my problem! The spines sticking out just makes the concept even more brilliant.

Accessories






How amazing are those boots?! The details of fringe, studs & straps just makes the shoes even more drool worthy. Plus, they are flats!! The bags are equally awesome especially the bag wit the studs at the bottom that Mary Kate Olsen was spotted carrying not long ago!

That bangle is a definite must have in every bangle collection!

I wasn't liking the crocodile biker shorts at first but it honestly grew on me! My favourites are the mini dresses & the cropped blazer wit a really fierce pair of pants wit studs ( I suppose ) at the sides! The sheer fabrics & the toga feel of the dresses are awesome & the hats are just, love.

  1. Hi,

    Amount - amazing! AND Alexander Wang's message is really sweetie.
    I like - very much - the reptile leather printed. (let it be the original one or a copy merely.) I'm not popular with the protectors of the animals, sure because of this. I have many pieces like this. There is a vintage crocodile printed (?) black leather bag at me, now. Did your eyes open wide? Answer: I work. :( unfortunetly.

    Have a great Sunday: Janet

  2. "Carnivores" - that would have made me curious too.
    Those earrings look a bit like hearing aids ^^ I have a scr on my earlobe, so I can't wear earrings either... But I used to have both ears pierced. It's not that bad, really!
    I like those black crocodile skin [?] accessoires. Although I don't like the shorts from that fabric.
    That dress in the 7th picture is really awesome though.

  3. My particular favorites here are his one shoulder white and black dresses. I love the sheer overlay and long sleeve; the entire collection is so sexy, but in a surprising style, heightened by all that black and white!

  15. I'm really liking this new Alexander Wang collection - it's a little bit more refined than his last several shows, but still with a definite edge.

    That white cut-out dress is so rad.

Those second boots and mary kates bag are to die for, if I had wanted anything for valentines days either of those would have led to life long love :-) that bangle looks dangerous!! I know I would definitely cause some damage to myself if I was to wear it, I'm such a klutz.

  46. The Alexander Wang collection, who cannot resist his temptations in design? "STRONG! WILD! POWERFUL! SAVAGE! BEAST!" Sounds like a string of words I would yell into the mirror while giving myself a pick-me-up after a long rut. Haha.

    ReplyDelete
  47. thanks for stopping by.. I still love everything!!

    ReplyDelete
  48. SHIT SHIT SHIT
    i died when i saw this collection
    i swore in my head
    because it just epitomized my style entirely.
    without all the boy by band of outsiders-esque blazers.
    gahh, so beautiful, so awesome.

    and thanks for you compliments on my last post ;)

  49. "carnivore" is definitely the right word. I like those leather sweatpants.

    ReplyDelete
  50. that studded bag is AMAZING!
    I love the purple assymetric dress too :)

  51. Wang is so boring to me...it always looks the same. But I like the walk description "savage beast" is my new slogan!

    ReplyDelete
  52. I am in LOVE with that purple minidress.

    ReplyDelete
  53. i love how its got a harder edge than his previous collections. i was really amazed by this; its great to see his collections evolve :)

  54. I've never really gotten into Alexander Wang but I adore that first white dress that looks like a topsy turvy mens shirt

    ReplyDelete
  55. A. Wang creates pretty amazing stuff, but I don't think I could personally ever like it enough to want to wear it myself.

    ReplyDelete
  56. Wow, that's an interesting idea for earrings. My ears have been pierced since the age of 3 but I hardly wear earrings! I normally just lose them and so if I did wear them often, I would find myself having to buy new ones everyday!

    I'm totally loving the cropped blazer! Very cool...

    Much Love,
    Carlita
