I have just been sent a sneak preview of an image from the Alexander Wang Fall 11 campaign, featuring Raquel Zimmerman, shot by Fabien Baron in an abandoned Brooklyn grain factory from the 20s.  Tonight around 9PM a series of projections around NYC will launch the Fall 11 video at a variety of locations, including Houston and McDougal, 14th and University, 14th Street and 8th Avenue for three consecutive nights (13/7 – 15/7). If, like me, you're not in Big Apple, the full video will launch on www.alexanderwang.com tomorrow morning.
