I’m loving the leather jackets reimagined as dresses and lace patchwork dress from Alexander McQueen this Spring collection…. I’m eagerly anticipating the biopic film … untitled so far… of McQueen’s life and also yet, another film called ‘The Ripper’, about the relationship between Isabella Blow and Alexander…. so excited to …

This is Alexander McQueen’s latest collection by Sarah Burton. Sarah Burton is an enigma to me. She is quite talented and has carried on McQueen’s legacy seamlessly, however, I still get frumpy- lesbian- who- shops- at- Home Depot- on- Saturday- afternoon vibes. My brain short circuits over this all the …

Sarah Burton decided to skin a few woodland animals, including the illustrious and bewitching Pepe Le Pew, for Alexander McQueen’s latest collection. The models look pretty cozy, except they also look angry. Scratch that, more like “hangry”. Someone throw a baby back rib up on there, for goodness sake. …

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 …

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’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 …

Here is a taste of what’s to come for Fall from Alexander McQueen… So, beautiful with the structured silhouette for day and sheer structure for the evening. Really pretty how a free flowing sheer gown can look so sharp at the same time. Anywho, that Sarah Burton has done it …

That Sarah Burton is really deceiving with her ‘comfortable shoes’ and frumpy personal style. Who would have thought she could come up with this beautiful collection that could’ve come from Alexander McQueen’s very own brain? The best part of it all are the hooded dresses. They should make more of …

When I first saw this collection, all I could think about was: a)The imitable Tilda Swinton as the White Witch with the yummy Turkish delight treats in that Narnia movie. and b) Mr. Marmar’s luxurious fluffy muffin fur. The resemblance is uncanny, especially in 5th photo. I just want take …
