What fabulous photos! I have never been a McQueen fan, but these have converted me. I'm so glad there's no plaid.
I love him. He has such a great creative taste that doesn't fall to the horrible. I like your blog, I add you to my links.
I so appreciate the "return to your roots" of Blogdorf ... juxtaposing art and fashion. You have such an eye,and this is such a wonderful way to demonstrate it. xoxo
I am swooning over that first look. Wow. I love this queen of hearts collection. I hope that coat is faux ermine, but it looks so fabulous with that litle red crini sticking out at the bottome. I would seriously love to dress like a queen in my real life. But could I pull it off without looking like Cruella DeVil?
And I agree with Mireille--I love the inspiration posts about runway collections. It's what Blogdorf does best!
I loved this collection
I am never ever disappointed by anything Alexander McQueen comes up with. Confused and challenged, surely, but I never look at something he creates and yawn. Pure artistry.
I love your fashion posts. See, things like this is why the Internet is great. More of that!
Thanks everyone.
I have missed doing these posts. They are so much fun to do.
Adding another voice to the choir--your eye is just incredible--the mental links and leaps you make with fashion, art, and culture are mind-bogglingly wonderful! cheers, Sara
I Love McQueen, these photos are fab and very inspiring!
