Alexander McQueen Spring Summer 2011


Shoes





Details







Great start by Sarah Burton, she really pushed the expectations beyond. As we could see, she stayed true to the McQueen esthetic, with beyond design cuts and shapes. Many variations of colors, we could see many whites, blacks, and bright rustic colors. Feathers and hay dominated the use of fabric. The detailed craftsmanship really was present with the hand painted feather butterflies, hay constructions all over the pieces and hand carved shoes with porcelain effect. To be honest, this collection was like a combinations of all McQueen's past collections, some shapes and cuts were very similar to Lee's work. But in general, its was an amazing collection that showed that McQueen is still alive.
