Renowned as a contemporary designer in his own right, New York-based Alexander Wang was recently the topic of discussions regarding the vacant role as creative director of Balenciaga. Confirmed to succeed the outgoing Nicolas Ghesquière, there has been little word from both parties. As one of the brightest within the current crop of American high-fashion designers, it is certain that Wang brings high energy and potential to the Spanish design house, which has been on the receiving end of considerable acclaim during the 15-year period before Ghesquière made his exit. Stay posted for further details as they develop.
