Alexander McQueen pre f/w 2010 lookbook.

It's so wearable, innovative, and yet with a weird edge to it, it's unbelieveble he's gone.
This is a huge sorrow for the world.

Alexander McQueen Fall 2010.

March 9, Paris was in possession of the AMAZING posthumous collection designed by Alexander McQueen, the collection is inspired in the byzantine times, a myriad of embroidery, beading and prints that confirms what everybody already knew McQueen was a genius. And now there is a huge void in fashion world.
Alexander McQueen's last works were given final honors by his trusted team in a hushed and dignified showing that went to his core as a designer who scaled the heights of couture accomplishment. Sarah Burton, his right hand, described how, in beginning this collection, McQueen had turned away from the world of the Internet, which he had so powerfully harnessed in his last show. "He wanted to get back to the handcraft he loved, and the things that are being lost in the making of fashion," she said. "He was looking at the art of the Dark Ages, but finding light and beauty in it. He was coming in every day, draping and cutting pieces on the stand." The 16 outfits shown had been 80 percent finished at the time of his death.

Rest in peace Alexander McQueen.
