More From Alex Wang Spring 2011

The video of Alex Wang’s show was live-streamed and if you missed that you can now watch the replay at Milkmade [UPDATE: video after the flip below]. Above are some more backstage images from Twitter (float your icon over the image for credit). When I read the initial comments on Thefashionspot about the show, including some chuckle-worthy ones questioning the “floating penis” above the runway, I was expecting to be disappointed, but seeing the looks myself there were obviously at least half a dozen standout items that are sure to be on every Alex girl’s want list, starting with the the trousers and skirts featuring copper zigzags, the bottoms in general, and–swoon, swoon, swoon–all the silky, kimono-inspired dresses. Shoes were great but no new strides there and I need some time to ponder the bags, which are toned down and smaller than in past collections. Time will tell. More backstage images of Alex himself, shoes, bags, a close up on a very neat print and one of Karen Elson in an amazing red velvet bathrobe before the show.
