Alexander Wang held his first show since taking a break amid sexual assault allegations. The designer was greeted with adoration during his highly anticipated show in Los Angeles. Wang celebrated Asian-American culture for his “Fortune City” runway show. Several people accused him of sexual assault and drugging male and transgender models.
Wang initially denied the allegations, calling them “baseless”. A lawyer for the alleged victims said they accepted his apology and are “moving forward”.
Designer Alexander Wang’s show was attended by 800 invitees who lined up to enter the Central Plaza area. It was a splashy event with stars like Kimora Lee Simmons and Lisa Rinna sitting in the front row. His brand is still being carried in some major retailers, especially in China.
Adriana Lima walked down the runway with her baby bump. The models sported a variety of pieces with shades of indigo and brown, denim and leather coats, red velour sweat suits and crop tops. The show closed with a heavy dose of red-coloured confetti cascading over everyone.
