If you're designing out of a purely creative place, not thinking of the girl, then the consumer's not going to take notice.

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.

I wear sports clothes because I feel comfortable in them.

I like to write and draw everything with sharpies. I even got one with my own name on it!

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.

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.

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.

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
Image
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.

Ive always loved when girls carry their wallets as a clutch instead of a bag.

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.

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