Label du Jour

Alexander Wang

Over the last two seasons, we were obsessed with the two Alexes -- Wang and McQueen. For summer, Wang proves he is worthy of our devotion once again.

Wang updated his style mantra this season to reflect his evolution in the industry, showcasing a more colorful look laced with athletic inspirations, yet still keeping true to his edgy grunge girl aesthetic from seasons past. While the virtual cornucopia of sexy attire was more than enough to keep us interested until Fall, it was his body-conscious little white dress that upstaged the entire show.

For summer, there will be nothing you will love more for cocktail dressing than this LWD. With asymmetric draping from the shoulder that is inspired by the way a t-shirt clings to the body when wet, this little stunner is not only a closet essential but proof that Alexander Wang is indeed a force to be reckoned with for seasons to come.
