Alexander Wang has returned to the runway after facing sexual misconduct accusations last year.
The fashion designer presented his “Fortune City” show in the Chinatown area of Los Angeles Tuesday night.
Well-known models such as Alessandra Ambrósio, Candice Swanepoel and Adriana Lima sported looks from Wang’s 50-look fall/winter 2022 collection which included a mix of crop tops, coordinating two-piece looks, denim pieces, “W”-embroidered accessories and more.
This season’s show celebrated a rich mix of Asian American culture and Wang’s Chinese heritage.
“While we disagree on some of the details of these personal interactions, I will set a better example and use my visibility and influence to encourage others to recognize harmful behaviors,” he said.
He concluded the statement by saying “Life is about learning and growth, and now that I know better, I will do better.”
After initially launching his namesake brand in 2005, Wang went on to receive the CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund in 2008. He also served as the creative director at Balenciaga from November 2012 through 2015 and has worked with celebrities such as Rihanna, Lucy Liu and more.
