More quotes by Alexander Wang
I think everyone shares a fear of failure-that you're only as good as your most recent collection.
Alexander Wang
Probably the earliest memories for me would be going to restaurants with my family.
Alexander Wang
I like to write and draw everything with sharpies. I even got one with my own name on it!
Alexander Wang
My mom would put me in these preppy little suits and slick my hair to the side. I have these baby pictures of me where I'm this little preppy kid with a sweater tied around my neck.

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 you focus on the consumer, the consumer responds.

I wear mostly black Main Line or T… But the other day, the sun was shining so I wore blue jeans. It caused so much excitement in the office! People were literally coming up from the floor below and peering behind my desk saying we hear you’re wearing blue jeans and we have to have a look

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.
Alexander Wang
No one is going to understand your brand better than you.
Alexander Wang
I always say that I'm really inspired by mistakes and things that kind of go wrong.
Alexander Wang
I wear sports clothes because I feel comfortable in them.
Alexander Wang
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.
Alexander Wang
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
Anyone can get dressed up and glamorous, but it is how people dress in their days off that are the most intriguing.
Alexander Wang
In the beginning I pushed toward perfection, but it takes time to get to certain places.
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 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.
