If you didn't know that Alexander Wang has been credited with helping to ignite modern street style, he drove the point home at his Fall '16 show. Set in Saint Bartholomew's Church in NYC, the designer did little to alter the space, leaving guests to worship at the altar of his street-ready fare: tanks, sweatshirts, and even tights emblazoned with choice phrases like "faded" and "strict" or covered in pot leaves. You can already imagine the legions of cool girls pulling the It pieces on in the Fall — or celebs like Rihanna [1] sporting hers ASAP. It's a look that's become synonymous with his brand, and while we suspect his crowd will readily buy up the grunge-flavored looks, the effect is a lot less shocking than it used to be.
