Continuing to eschew the constraints of fashion week schedules, New York-based designer Alexander Wang showed a spring 2020 with a first-time runway presentation at Manhattan’s famed Rockefeller Center on Saturday (May 1, 2019) where the public was able to watch the show from the fresco above the skating rink where the show was staged.
In addition to the flashy location, the show also received a ton of coverage because affable galumph Pete Davidson was included among the cast.
A tribute to iconic American designers Calvin Klein, Ralph Lauren and Donna Karan, the shows looks were divided into four groups each of which was themed by material and color stories and ranged from flip skirts to three-quarter-length pea coats.
“I started thinking about the pioneers that paved the way for me to be an American fashion designer and all the things about American fashion that I love that have inspired me from the beginning,” Wang explained following the show.
