Wang described the metropolitan backdrop as "the concrete jungle," which served as inspiration for the Spring Summer 2024 collection, which follows a see-now, buy-now strategy. He added vertical slits to baggy trousers as a means of exploring new erogenous zones; other fashion companies, such Burberry by Phoebe Philo and Daniel Lee, have adopted this style. Targeting the brand's younger audience, these thigh and shin slits at Wang radiate a youthful eroticism.

This collection reflects Wang's continued love of exposed knickers, a theme he started with his Bushwick, Brooklyn, spring 2018 presentation. Undergarments become outerwear with leather bra tops embellished with crochet and bomber-bra-top hybrids. Wang gives a nod to adaptability with her selection of water-safe denim swimwear, blending beach and nightlife wear with short bikinis and cropped jean jackets.

Wang's 20th year in the business is quickly approaching, and rumours regarding his possible return to the New York Fashion Week programme are starting to circulate. He doesn't say anything, but he does allude to an activation that will take place in tandem with the launch of his pre-fall collection. In a changing world where fashion shows are being reassessed, Wang's emphasis on satisfying his clientele's needs is indicative of a client-first strategy. 

A summer weekend in downtown New York is proof enough of Wang's timeless appeal with her young, body-positive aesthetic.

Alexander Wang exhibits a continuous dedication to creativity and relevancy in the constantly changing industry landscape with each collection, pushing the limits and redefining modern fashion.
