Here is Sarah Burton’s latest collection for Alexander McQueen. I’m not in love with it… actually, I could care less about this collection. It’s just sort of FUG, in my opinion. It’s supposed to be influenced by Scottish kilts and Zulu tribes but all I see is FUG, FUG, a …

  Always amazing…. Always innovative. Iris Van Herpen is probably the single most clever designer of our time. Even though her name reminds me of herpes, she really has a knack for making the possible impossible in terms of making the most unwearable materials wearable. She must must must be …

  Sarah Burton produced 10 looks for McQueen this season, which is pretty small. But, each look was extra fantastical, so that made up for that. As you may know, Sarah Burton is preggers, so she’s pretty much sitting at home eating pickles and ice cream while looking through Pinterest …

  Dutch designer Iris Van Herpen showed her fourth haute couture collection called ‘Voltage’ at Paris’ fashion week. I’m not sure why Style.com doesn’t add Iris to to the their roster… I mean, yes, it’s avant guard, but isn’t that what haute couture is all about? Anywho, the dresses were all 3-D …

It was about the birds (that’s British-speak for ‘lady’ ) and the bees for McQueen. The show had more fake flowers than a 99cent store, which I have to say , I LOVED! The honeycomb design was also super cool and of course, the caged corsets were KILLER! I love …

  Those hats! Those silhouettes! Serbian fashion designer Ivana Pilja‘s latest collection is definitely one to remember. Although, it is reminiscent of Alexander McQueens last Spring collection before he died tragically.  Ivana won the Elle Fashion Award for her 2010 collection, so she’s pretty good at her game. Definitely one to watch! photos: …

Can you believe this dress weighs as much as one Oprah circa 1985?? Dayum , is right. Made completely out of gummy bears, Hissa Igarashi and Sayuir Marakumi made a McQueen-inspired gown that weighs 220 pounds. All 50,000 gummy bears were glued onto a vinyl backing that needed 3 poor slaves …

I’ve written about Amato Haute Couture before  – I love love love  their stuff! The butterflies do remind me of Alexander McQueen’s dress, but it’s still rad anyway.  The model is Raina Hein from America’s Next Top Model… I never really see the contestants on that show doing much after …

Check out these cool harnesses from  Freyagushi on Etsy… So versatile and Alexander McQueen-esque without the hefty price tag. Seriously, it can dress up the most boring JC Penney dress around! What I love most about these harnesses is that you can embellish it with pins and rhinestones as you please. …

It’s so FLUFFY!!!!! McQueen’s latest collection was fantastic, except that it looked more like something Viktor & Rolf would do, not gothic designer Alexander McQueen. I didn’t expect all these pinks and whites from a designer who made their name with skulls and bones. But, whatever, I LOVE it. I’m …
