Heels got the boot at New York Fashion Week as designer Alexander Wang<\/strong> unveiled his Spring 2015 collection inspired entirely by sneakers.

Highlights included the use of obvious but still iconic elephant print, Air Jordan 6<\/a> elements incorporated into both bags and dresses, a range of perforated white dresses with green collars that drew from the adidas Stan Smith<\/a>, as well as nods to Flyknits, Wovens and New Balances on other pieces.<\/p>\n

While wearers generally use wardrobe as a form of self expression, designers are more apt to use their work as a form of opinion or social commentary. For Alexander Wang– one of the hottest, most well respected and busiest designers<\/a> in the industry– to make an entire line dedicated to sneakers says a lot about both the culture and the craze. Let us know your take on the collection in the comment section.<\/p>\n
