{at home with: alexander wang}

Flipping through a past issue of domino and happily came across Alexander Wang‘s NYC apartment {above, styled by Lili Diallo} and remembered completely falling for its perfect mix of rock + refined — a Terry Richardson photo hangs above the bed and beside a fantastically pretty flea market dresser about which Wang has said, “People are so self- conscious and afraid of things that might make them look cheesy. The coolest people are the ones who aren’t afraid to look like dorks.”

above: amazing leather handbag {definitely on the fall shopping list} and shoes with see-through heels from the fall 2009 collection + a sexy, body-conscious dress from the resort 2010 collection
above: home office with perfectly arranged and framed portraits of models styled as oil-field workers, drifters and miners

Gorgeous home and office! I don’t think there’s anything I don’t like about Mr. Wang’s place!!
Thanks for posting these.
I love his clothes and his apartment! It was definitely one of my all time favorite Domino features. Considering my love for Domino, that’s saying something!
i love those pictures above the desk… so sexy!
This is a great post. Wang is certainly one of the best young designers out there…and it’s always interesting to see what fashion designers do with their interiors. Lovely.
ALL so amazing. Love the office space!
Black/ivory/metal is such a great palate cleanser…with a touch of vintage and fur thrown in for softness. Love all the photos…
Can we talk about how lovely his bags are? I’ve been drooling over some at barney’s lately–I think they’re going to ban me from the store?
and my T by alexander wang shirts are pretty much my go-to items this summer. he’s SO GOOD! love the mix of sexy and edgy…
butterfly kisses to you on this tuesday, my sweetling :)
Wow, I LOVE his apartment, wish I could tour it in person
Alexander Wang’s home is so beautiful. I love the glamorous bedroom!

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this appt. It’s like, Upper East Side classy meets downtown rocker chic.
I want that dresser and bedside table :(
Alex Wang is bang-on all the time.
alexander wang is genious! I remember this article from domino and I actually tore the pages to make a collage of my dream apartment!
this is so rocker,chic, glam and classy.
his clothes are beyond beautiful and his shoes ..to die for!
I’m usually so femme and soft, but I’ve been loving tougher stuff. I love Alexander Wang’s pieces and really like this post.
All beautiful pictures but my favourite is the bedroom. I love the mirror, dressing table.
Enjoy your week
Domino snifff…. R.I.P.
Oh my! His apartment is SO stunning! I didn’t expect it to be so classic glam…absolutely gorgeous! LOVE those shoes with the clear heel! Also, that last dress takes my breath away :)
