When you focus on the consumer, the consumer responds.

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.

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 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.

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.

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.

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.

No one is going to understand your brand better than you.

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

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.
