I was kind of waiting for someone to call Alexander Wang out. I loved his football-and-sweats collection from S/S 2010 but I think his mentality is definitely more suited to his diffusion line. I think that he has style and a great eye towards trend forecasting but no real depth or technical knowledge. A lot of people on nymag.com are commenting that he should stick to designing accessories- I wholeheartedly agree (those leopard wedges?!).
I think it's great when there is honest critique of popular designers because it challenges their right to maintain such high price points. The bubble's leaking, Mr. Wang, are you going to let it burst?
