INSPIRATION Hussein Chalayan SS||2013... Alexander Wang for Balenciaga FW 2013||14

Alexander Wang must have been terrified by the thought of becoming the new creative director for such an important French heritage brand like Balenciaga, what a responsibility! Imagine the pressure he must  have been under for his debut collection, also because he had to succeed the amazing work of Nicolas Ghesquière. Might he have looked up some of the PFW fashion authorities during his research? If yes, that could be the explanation why some of his details and patterns for FW 2013||14 [all rights] seem to be inspired by Hussein Chalayan's SS||2013 collection [all lefts].
