A bold fusion inspired skate goth aesthetic runs through the collection like a dark wave of insurrection
Alexander Wang’s rebellious spirit is evident in his pre-fall collection for 2016. Following in the direction on which he embarked on for Pre-Fall 2015 his collection for 2016 is a step even further to the puck rock left. A bold fusion inspired skate goth aesthetic runs through the collection like a dark wave of insurrection. The bondage elements are bolder this time around and play happily alongside the more approachable checkered print pattern found in a number of pieces. Hemlines run the gamut from micro minis to floor length with unexpected detailing like frayed edges, grommet boarders and peak-a-boo cutouts. Animal print also has a moment in this lineup with a standout classic leopard print coat that is effortlessly paired with a street cred ski hat and pencil skirt in a casually edgy vibe. Satin bomber jackets, traditional trenches and a Chanelesque tweed blazer balance nicely with the overtly not for the office pieces in a combined effort of gorgeous defiance.

I’m really glad AMQ’s signature aesthetic is still being carried on. Totally coveting that black leather jacket in the second look.
I love how his collection is never mainstream like the others and his is always a touch different and quirky. And yes, the first word that came into my mind was ‘gothic’ too!

YASSSSS! To so many of these pieces. I don’t think I’ve ever fallen for EVERY singly piece in a collection before. That tweed jacket needs to get on my body.

I just wish models could look happier. The bored, irritated look spoils the clothes. Besides, I got that look far too often when my daughters where teens.
Lovely post, dear!! .x

Those striped tights are very interesting. They remind me of Jack Skellington, lol! I wonder if I’d like them if I were to try them on. Hmm..
I love the coats/jackets!
