After two seasons of working together, Alexander Wang and Erin Wasson are parting ways. Alex has a new stylist,Alastair McKimm, which he has geared up to style his Spring 2009 collection in place of Wasson. However we will still be seeing more of erins styling work as she will still be creating jewelry for the show from her 'Low Luv Line'.
As for the clothes, Alexander Wang promises "a marked departure" from past collections: lots of color and dresses, an athletic-meets-“Miami Vice” vibe, lace patterns inspired by sweat stains, and runway hats by milliner Albertus Swanepoel that look like a mix between swim caps and “corseted do-rags.”

And here comes the exciting part..Spring 2009 will also bring a diffusion line. T by Alexander Wang, and the designer's first shoe collection (both above). T focuses on his signature tees: Tanks to T-shirt dresses ($28-$40 wholesale) in colors ranging from whites and gray to lavender, chartreuse and cerulean, all in Alex's signature slouchy style.
As for the shoes, there are five styles to begin with, $125 to $250 wholesale, capturing the street feel Alex likes — and get this: He used actual body-piercing rings as hardware. What a whirlwind — let's hope Alex can keep up!
