Best news I’ve heard all week: It boy designer and all-around cutie Alexander Wang is launching his own eponymous shoe collection for Spring 09! It will debut on his runway this September and from the looks of the exclusive preview he gave WWD, it is FIERCE. I’m loving the thong styles of which he says, “Everyone’s been doing an open-toe. I added a thong to give it a fresh perspective and make it more provocative. The thong between your toes, it draws attention to that area.
Apparently the shoes are meant to serve as a contrast to the clothing in his upcoming collection, which will contain “lots of color and dresses underscored by an athletic-meets-Miami-Vice vibe.” Personally, I can’t wait to get my hands on my ticket to his show. Also, the fringed thong bootie wouldn’t hurt.
