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'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.

I wear sports clothes because I feel comfortable in them.
Alexander Wang
Image
All my closest friends are the ones I made while in college or who knew me growing up. They keep me grounded, and I adore that about them.
Alexander Wang
Image
I never really did sports growing up. Maybe that's why they intrigue me. The technology that goes into that clothing is steps ahead, so it's always been something I look towards.

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.

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.

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.

Designing a product and understanding how it filters through into the market and into the rest of the company is very important to me.

I think everyone shares a fear of failure-that you're only as good as your most recent collection.

A lot of my work is a matter of reacting to surprises in life.

Take people's advice and guidance in the beginning, but always follow your instincts first

Probably the earliest memories for me would be going to restaurants with my family.

Where music leads, I follow.

Go with your instinct and your gut. It sounds cliché, but never give up and just keep on. If you really believe in it, you have to just dive in and go for it.

I tend to like the most basic pieces with the perfect fit and fabric, like a simple tank.
