Alexander Wang and adidas Originals Head to Coachella, Flaws and All

Back with another unique spin on fashion delivery, Alexander Wang and adidas Originals recently teased their third seasonal collection on an adventurous road trip to Coachella. Wang and models Binx Walton, Lexi Boling, Issa Lish, Cat McNeil and Hanne Gaby Odiele drove across the desert, using gas stations and water parks as the backdrops for the fresh wearables. Perhaps even more remarkable than the sun-drenched imagery, however, is the unorthodox concept behind the new line.

The collaborative Season 3 collection is all about turning flaws into gems. Inspired by factory rejects and the inevitable manufacturing errors that come with clothing production, each piece comes with a purposeful “flaw” including pixelated graphics, uneven printing and perma-wrinkled fabrics. From track tops and jackets to sweatsuits and soccer shoes interpreted by the New York designer, the athletic wearables get a touch of authentic grit with the addition of fashion blemishes. Enjoy the views from Los Angeles to Indio below and cop your favorite pieces today!
