We love Alexander Wang and we love H&M. So naturally, when we heard about the Alexander Wang x H&M collaboration, we were pretty thrilled. But after clicking through the look book, we were a little skeptical as to how someone without model proportions could rock the collection.
Instead of dismissing Wang’s designs, a few Huffington Post editors decided to choose their favorite item and figure out how they would style it IRL.
And, as it turns out, the majority of his pieces are quite wearable (and most easily styled with other black clothing). Though we may not be sporting Wang’s faux-leather tearaways anytime soon, we will be waiting in line when the collab drops on Nov. 6 to score a few crop tops and that mesh backpack.
