More quotes by Alexander Wang
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
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
I think sometimes there are negative connotations for those who have a business mind as well as a creative side.
Alexander Wang
If someone realises the piece they are wearing is inspired by me then it only broadens my audience.
Alexander Wang
In the beginning I pushed toward perfection, but it takes time to get to certain places.
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 feel so thankful that I'm able to be a part of something that I love to wake up and run to work every day.
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
Designing a product and understanding how it filters through into the market and into the rest of the company is very important to me.
Alexander Wang
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
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
I think everyone shares a fear of failure-that you're only as good as your most recent collection.
Alexander Wang
I seem to always start a collection by designing outerwear and jackets.
Alexander Wang
My friends always joke that I run on batteries.
Alexander Wang
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.
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
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
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
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.
