Alexander McQueen S/S 09 Paris

Lily Donaldson's dress is wonderfully pretty - just like pressed flowers. :heart:
 
omg i love it so far! the volume and emphasis on the shoulders and hips. so beautiful!
 
ew the only thing I like so far is the dress on Lily, but the rest... :unsure:
 
i am really interested to know about the concept/inspiration behind... the clothes so far are very directional but then the styling... those hair reminds me of someone who walked in the jungle for many days and just emerged from the river. there are a lot of great pieces but judging from the response this aint as spectacular as fall 08? and i smell a little bit of gaultier in this...
 
I think it looks cool, will make great editorials. McQueen is one of the very few shows and collections I care about as non-fashionisto.

And BerlinRocks, don't you think it's très Balenciaga?
 
A clash of the beautiful and the disturbed all drawn together in the (literal) kaleidoscope of nature. I seriously dig this....
 
i was at the show...the setting was pretty cool, if a little quirky. the girls had trouble with the shoes, a couple stumbling, and one fainted as she walked off and had to be carried away. I think the aesthetic, the shapes mixed with the prints are totally unexpected but on reflection can definitely see it translating editorially and a few commercially. There was a gorgeous pair of shoe boots with a really long ankle cuff. Overally, really out there, but it is easily the most interesting show this season..

fw08 blew my mind, everysinglepiece.
this is just... i dont know, some of the dresses / suits are sooo interesting and beautiful, but most of the prints make me cringe. but i HATE prints (animal ones in particular) in general so...

lucky gal!

i can't wait to see the entire collection. hope it will pop up on style.it soon!
 
^Wait, a girl fainted :o Was there extreme corsetry involved?
 
yes, quite a few of the dresses were super tight. music was very 'jungly'!
 
I don't know what to think about this collection. I like many pieces, but the whole is quite suprising. I think I'm gonna like it, but I need some time.
