Hot Damn!

My dear 6 readers, I have amazing news. The inimitable Gigi is going to take me to see the Alexander McQueen exhibit at the Met (at a time to be determined).

FASHION FREAK OUT!!!!!!



These are from two of my favorite McQueen shows - Highland Rape (2006) is the first 5 photos. I love that collection so much. Gemma Ward being swallowed by organza? Amazing. The last two are from the fall 2009 couture collection (I'm not sure what it was called - I mean probably something borderline offensive, right?). This reminds me of images I've seen from Matthew Barney films...you know, PLUS absolutely incredible construction. I like that it's a little bit beautiful and a lot bit scary.

OBVIOUSLY I will be reporting back to you in breathless detail. Really? Do you even need to ask?

  1. I think I'm going on June 7th... if that helps sway you two into going then so we can gush over everything together!

  3. Does the model with the umbrella on her head have a mustache?
