I am honoured to be a part of H&M's designer collaborations. The work with their team is an exciting, fun process. They are very open to pushing boundaries and to set a platform for creativity. This will be a great way for a wider audience to experience elements of the Alexander Wang brand and lifestyle.

In the beginning I pushed toward perfection, but it takes time to get to certain places.

I really learn from something that really inspires me and it becomes something that I remember.

I’m not like most designers, who have to set sail on an exotic getaway to get inspired. Most of the time, it’s on my walk to work, or sitting in the subway and seeing something random or out of context.

Image
The things that you can't really foresee and that kind of surprise you, and a lot of times they are bad, but other times, they bring something different and new to the table.

I always wanted to create a collection inspired by sports. I never played sports, maybe that's why it intrigues me.

Time passes faster and faster, but with every project I always want to find the next challenge and the next challenge is just as exciting as the previous one.

I don't think fashion week will go back to what it used to be because people are realising that the industry is completely changing. It's not just in Bryant Park any more, people are figuring out who their audience is, where they want to show, they aren't really playing by the rules. It's not so much about these editors, these buyers.

The industry's changed so much that you can't just design something, put on a great show, and say, 'Okay, my job is done.'

I always say that I'm really inspired by mistakes and things that kind of go wrong.

I was in fashion school, my brother has a law background, and my sister-in-law had worked in production, but none of us had a proper fashion business education.

My mom would take me to restaurants, and the first thing I'd ask for would be a pen and a napkin, and I'd sketch shoes and shoes and shoes.

Image
When I decided to launch my first knitwear line, it was because I saw a void in the basics category. The editors were always looking for cool, fashion-forward tees and sweaters. So that's where I started.
Alexander Wang
Image
My mission was that I wanted to see people on the street that I don't know wearing my clothes. That excites me.
Alexander Wang
Image
There's a tendency to think that young designers only do fantasy fashion, but I'm more interested in making clothes that women can afford.

Take people's advice and guidance in the beginning, but always follow your instincts first
Alexander Wang
Image
You know, when you go to high school or, you know, when kids are younger and there's not an understanding of differences. But I built up a very strong, thick skin.

Image
I like to write and draw everything with sharpies. I even got one with my own name on it!
Alexander Wang
Image
I think everyone shares a fear of failure - that you're only as good as your most recent collection. That's definitely a fear, but it's a fear that fuels me, that makes me want to work harder, that makes me take on more challenges.

Any style that Nike makes in all black, shoe, sweatshirt, onesie, doesn't matter, I pretty much need to have.

I've always said I'm not the kind of designer who likes to lock himself away in a studio and let the rest of the company deal with it. I work very closely with everyone on the team.
