Posting the rest of PAFW tomorrow but I wanted to post McQueen tonight. As usual, all of the looks are here, instead of just the few I pick for every other show. This is the brightest, most artful peice of futuristic design I've seen in a long time. Lee would be so proud! I truly miss him seeing this collection. I know he would have loved all the pieces, and especially the fact that it had an underwater theme. The clothes are beautiful, it's like watching a fairy tale. I love the delicate detailing and the leather work on the jackets. I also love that she brought the masks back, we don't know which girl is which! The masks almost give the girls a sense of grotesque beauty. Perhaps sheilding them because they are too beautiful to be seen.
Sarah Burton perfected it this time; the colors are right on spot, and the underwater theme is beautiful, right in line with Chanel's theme as well. McQueen was a huge fan of the underworld. he went on vacations after his shows and used to go deep water diving, where he found a whole world he felt at peace with. These girls looked like mermaids, and they are each beautiful in their own way. Absolutely my favorite collection of this season.
