Ever since it was first announced last month, the fashion world has been buzzing with anticipation about Alexander Wang's collaboration with Adidas. Last night, the former Balenciaga designer finally debuted his new line during his show at New York Fashion week. It was a star-studded affair with Nicki Minaj, Tyga, DeJ Loaf in attendance and featuring performances by G.O.O.D. Music rapper Travi$ Scott and Desiigner. 

One of the most noticeable aspects of Wang's new line is the way he literally flipped Adidas iconic logo upside down. "Originals is such an iconic brand, with instantly recognizable symbols and trademarks. It’s both grounded in heritage and also completely modern,” Wang explained to Vogue. “With this collection, the idea was to take the codes and iconography of the Adidas Originals brand and look at what their symbols mean and turn them on their head, to invert what’s on the surface and add a layer of subversion; also to toy with the idea of what’s authentic and what’s fake, and how a certain setting can change perception entirely.”

Wang's entire 84-piece lineup is designed to be totally unisex and features both apparel and footwear.
