Wanging Out

Fashion designer – and M Pack member – Alexander Wang is leaving Balenciaga.

Evidently, the company that controls the Parisian fashion house is not keen to renew his contract, so Spring 2016 might be it for the guy.

Wang replaced Nicolas Ghesquière almost three years ago, after Ghesquière decamped in 2012 for Louis Vuitton following a 15-year reign at Balenciaga.

The mandate now reportedly is to find a younger, hipper unknown to take over for Wang, who will refocus on his well-liked New York-based namesake brand.
