Peter Pilotto vs. Alexander Wang, Mountainscape Edition
Steep summits are having an improbable fashion moment.
Mountains are having an improbable fashion moment. For his "survivalist" fall collection, Alexander Wang showed jagged peaks in neon green and purple, splashed across a very cool-looking anorak.
