Rips and tears are all the rage throughout the Alexander Wang Pre-Fall 2014 Collection.
Ripped jeans aren't the only wearable distressed fashion now that Alexander Wang's pre-Fall collection is ready to wear. This line of intricately designed apparel features a wide variety of clothing that manage to look disintegrated and good all at the same time.
The collection exhibits clothing like a camel cashmere sweater with a peeled away back and numerous black numbers dotted with frays and tiny holes. Wang tended to stick to darker colors throughout this collection with random pops of light, cool grays and deep emerald greens.
The Alexander Wang Pre-Fall 2014 collection makes distressed and torn up looks something I can see myself definitely falling over.
