Backstage Illustrations From Alexander Wang

Alexander Wang’s spring 2013 collection was all about sharp linear cutouts and neutral colors, and when our artist Samantha Hahn went backstage with her watercolors, she zeroed in on some of the most striking details. Shapes were boxy and sophisticated with plenty of leather and a few exotic skins, while shoes were strapped high up models’ calves. Hairstylist Guido Palau added an edgy accent to the ponytail by placing a strip of black or white duct tape across center parts, and the beauty look aimed for flawless and sexy, with a bold brow and rosy cheeks.
