The setting was Duggal Greenhouse, a new event space in the Navy Yard, the Web site of which advertises the latest in “solar energy, organic air purification, and eco-friendly building practices.” Aside from the fact that it was—Shock! Horror!—in Brooklyn, it was an apt setting for a conceptual collection about pounding the New York pavement. “Extreme conditions and survival,” were the designer’s talking points at a preview. There were references to hunting, mountain climbing, and other outdoor sports, but the clothes, as is typical forAlexander Wang, who joked that he goes to the gym “at least once a month,” were resolutely urban.

Making it in the big city requires two things: a great coat and walking boots. Wang had both. Outerwear was the show’s strongest category, and there were a lot of persuasive options, from suede down puffers to shearlings to silk Windbreakers with jacquards of mountain scenes at the hem.

The lights went down and a dozen more models walked out, taking their places around the edge of the runway. As the circle started and stopped, the heat-activated leather clothes on the models stationed in front of the set’s metal vents changed colors—from black to blue or yellow or purple—then slowly faded as they rotated away.
