southside can you switchboard ?

Well, with about two-three hours on my hands, I've decided to post a little about my thoughts on a collection of fashion for fall 2010. This time around, I'll blog about McQueen. ♥ & Afterward I'll go to Julie's and nerd out watching reruns of glee. ♥

Alexander McQueen
{RIP- February 10, 2010}



This is my favorite of the entire collection; a cloak-like outerwear piece. It is very elegant and Victorian-styled with modern touches like a belt and collar. The fabric is perfectly detailed and elaborate, while the colors just blend together so nicely- my mouth keeps watering.



The tops, gloves, and shoes above were just a few of my likings found in this collection; though the whole collection was appealing, a few of the outfits were a bit different than the style I feel McQueen was trying to portray. Below are about nine of the sixteen outfits he had been working on around the time of his death, and I did find over half of his work this time around flattering.





He really did an excellent job this time around. Even on a sad note, it was a great final collection for him to work on.

*Oh, and title is from switchboard by Kid Sister. (:
