Pre-Fall/Winter 2011

Details

Shoes

The pre-collection of Alexander McQueen fall/winter 2011 was inspired by many classic paintings. High quality fabrics and good hand craft is used, not only on the clothing but also on the accessories and shoes, making each piece special. Dark colors were the most present with few greys and metallic ones. A great amount of leather was featured this season, such as bleached copper-ish and normal black leather. Low necklines were all over this collection, in the gowns, shirts and small dresses, but keeping it classy at the same time. This lookbook was from Lee's last unfinished collection.

Stage 2

Alexander McQueen's stage for ''Irere'' spring/summer 2003.

Quote McQueen

''Clothes and jewellery should be startling, individual. When you see a woman in my clothes, you want to know more about them. To me, that is what distinguishes good designers from bad designers.''

-Lee Alexander McQueen

Shoes of the Day - Armadillo Shoes

The highest heels ever by Lee. One of McQueen's most outstanding collections was spring/summer 2010, in which not only the dresses were amazing but it also featured one of the best heels present by him. The Armadillo shoes are 12 inches tall, with a 10 inch heel and is presented with different prints and patterns. Unfortunately this shoes will not be sold nor a wearable version will be made, so will can only appreciate them by magazines editorials or in some Alexander McQueen stores.

Philip Tracy for McQueen

Great friends and colleges. The most notable collaboration was in spring/summer 2008, in ''LA DAME BLEUE''. All the hats were different in their own way and decorated every model's head in an organic way.
