A lot of designers get caught up in the creativity, but you've got to think about the legs of your collection - essentially, how the line is going to move forward.

More quotes by Alexander Wang
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.
Alexander Wang
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.
Alexander Wang
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.
Alexander Wang
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
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.
Alexander Wang
In the beginning I pushed toward perfection, but it takes time to get to certain places.
Alexander Wang
No one is going to understand your brand better than you.
Alexander Wang
If you're designing out of a purely creative place, not thinking of the girl, then the consumer's not going to take notice.
Alexander Wang
Ive always loved when girls carry their wallets as a clutch instead of a bag.

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.
Alexander Wang
The great thing is that young talent isn't tied to a how-to model for starting a line we get to find new ways to go about doing things. And don't let people tell you you can't. Go find a way to show that you can.
Alexander Wang
If someone realises the piece they are wearing is inspired by me then it only broadens my audience.
Alexander Wang
I tend to like the most basic pieces with the perfect fit and fabric, like a simple tank.
Alexander Wang
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.'
Alexander Wang
I mean, I've always said I have an amazing team and network of friends and people that I work with that, you know, inspire me and enable me to do what I do.
Alexander Wang
I thought I would attend school and get an assistant position and work my way up but being in NY and seeing the pace of everything, is very inspiring.
Alexander Wang
I like to write and draw everything with sharpies. I even got one with my own name on it!
Alexander Wang
It's hard sometimes to take a step back and realize what's happened because you're always trying to move forward. You're always looking at the next palette.
Alexander Wang
Anyone can get dressed up and glamorous, but it is how people dress in their days off that are the most intriguing.
Alexander Wang
I wear sports clothes because I feel comfortable in them.
