Alexander Wang Fashion Shows | Pictures

With New York Fashion Week excitement ramping up, it's time to press "refresh" on our knowledge of our favorite designers' past collections. Today, we're honing in on Alexander Wang's model off-duty wares, taking a closer look at the way his sporty-meets-chic vibe took the downtown style scene by storm.

By now, the Wang girl is totally iconic. It's hard to imagine the world without Alexander Wang's vision of the downtown, edgy-cool chick. While urban street style existed before 2007, the California-bred designer took that unmistakable look and refined it into something so insanely chic and wearable that every girl wanted a piece. Whether it's his slouchy denim, killer pebbled leather bags, or body-con dresses, his creations never fail to impress with a unique brand of It factor. Currently, Alexander Wang is a globally recognized brand and one of the first places you look for something utterly cool. Take a look back with this runway retrospective of Alexander Wang's relatively short — but unstoppable — career.
