Ahhh spring and summer. Nothing defines the spirit of these seasons more than eager students speeding out of school after a grueling year. Alexander Wang, with his boarding school background, embodied these eager emotions by revisiting days clad in uniforms and chinos spent on musky football fields.




To me it looks like these girls had some fun in the locker room! Alexander Wang's spring/summer '10 collection felt erotically charged with a heavy emphasis on jocklike apparel; womens wear inspired by mens underthings and gear borrowed from a sports team. The shoulders were broadened, skirts mocked shirts tied around the waist, sport armor and pads built volume, sexy athletic socks quirked it up: everything was sporty and utilitarian, right down to the bewildered ponytails the models wore. The result touched based on the heritage of American prep schools laced with all the tradition of sports. A true twist on the naughty school girl.

Me thinks: Something about this collection excites me a bundle! AHHH SO. GOOD. Also, mens underthings = tres sexy. Looks like these girls aren't afraid to get dirty and still look sexy at the same time. Also, the use of sheer fabrications = j'adore.
