The new men’s collection was inspired by the Rocco Duffe bag which was released in 2009. This iconic bag is instantly recognizable by its leather texture and its thick rocker brass studs at the bottom of the bag. “When people started asking me for the Rocco again, I said, “are we really there yet? Are we back here?” Wang stated at a showroom visit by Vogue.

This collection was released by Alexander Wang on October 24th on a private showroom, but the brand is planning on feature their collection at the beginning of 2024 on locations like Las Vegas and Vancouver. Wang is making a comeback with a funky rock street style of clothing. The collection has a lot of texture and different fabrics but at the same time is cohesive. The message is there: rock and chic but in the 21 Century.
As we said before the Rocco Bag made a comeback with this collection but as an inspiration. In most of the looks the brass studs make an appearance. Metalic textures like coin chains is something we’ve been seeing for a while with the rock industry but not that often in the runway. Some of the outfits use the chains as bracelets or as a decor for your pants which is an interesting but fun way of using that accessory. This collection is all about making a comeback because there is some cow fur print in the caps and jackets giving a cool impression. For the Queen fans, this look will be perfect for Fredy Mercury to wear on a daily basis. Is not an extravagant look but the accessories are a compliment to the look and makes its more “rock and roll”.
If you are someone that likes a street style but also have to go to work with a formal look this collection is perfect for you. If there is an important meeting, you can take off the chains and hats and keep on the belts and your look will be “Financial District” appropriate but if you have a plan with friends after work just put on the accessories, maybe a bag and you will look cool plus is winter appropriate.
Advisory Board Crystals also known as “Abc” just launched today at 11 am EST on their web site their new apparel capsule in collab with the NBA breaking 90’s sport stereotypes.
The collection features different types of vintage clothes that we’ve seen in the late 80’s and early 90’s. The main fabrics are taffeta, cotton, quilted, wool and flannel which gives an old school vibe. There is a lot of embroidery going on naming the brand and the NBA. On most of the pieces including accessories there is a pattern which is stars, mainly because basketball players are the stars of the show when the game is on. The colorful stars give a sense of childhood and fun.
As any fashion capsule they also have accessories like necklaces made out of colorful beans and retro oval shape sunglasses. There’s also bean bags perfect to fit all your clothes if you are going on a two-day trip like most basketball players do when they are going to play a game.
The brand used recycle fabric for most of their clothes and that goes really well with their values. As they stated that they want to approach fashion with a philosophical mindset bringing the consumption of marihuana and basketball players to relate and do not be a tabu topic for 2023.
