Alexander Wangis speaking out for the first time afterfacing sexual assault allegations.
“Seeing these lies about me being perpetuated as truths has been infuriating,” Wang continued. “I have never engaged in the atrocious behavior described and would never conduct myself in the manner that’s been alleged. I intend to get to the bottom of this and hold accountable whoever is responsible for originating these claims and viciously spreading them online.”
On Monday,S—t Model Managementshared a post declaring, “Alexander Wang has been accused of sexual assault for a few years now. Instead of letting these occurrences be swept under the rug, it is time to do something about this. Please unfollow@alexwangny&@alexanderwangnyto show your support to the victims.”
The account then sharedanonymous and unverified storiesof the designer’s alleged inappropriate behaviors, with one unidentified person claiming Wang laced their drink with Molly (a variety of the stimulant MDMA) and another (also unidentified) claiming Wang coerced them into his room for the night.
“This comment surprised me just because they actually got it right,” Mooney said about a commenter who called out Wang. “Turns out Alexander Wang is a massive sexual predator,” Mooney concluded, “and there’s been a load of other people that he’s done this to. So in that case, he needs to be exposed.”
No third party has come forward to confirm, or contest, Mooney’s account.
