Alexander Wang was born and raised in San Francisco, California and later moved to New York City to attend Parsons School of Design. In 2005, after two years, he pursued the launch of his own label. The collection began predominately in knitwear, represented by six unisex silhouettes. In Spring 2007, it had evolved into a full Women’s ready-to-wear line and the collection was shown for the first time on the runway in Fall 2007.
In 2008, Wang received top honors as the recipient of the CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund and launched his first handbag collection the same year; in 2009, he was recognized by his peers when announced the winner of the Swarovski Womenswear Designer of the Year. Also in 2009, Women’s T by Alexander Wang and footwear launched, while Men’s T by Alexander Wang launched in 2010. Men’s ready-to-wear launched in 2011 and Wang was acknowledged by GQ as Best New Menswear Designer of the Year and by the CFDA for Best Accessory Designer that same year. In 2013, Wang was honored with the Fashion Star award by the Fashion Group International.
