Art is the lie that tells the truth

So sad, so beautiful it breaks my heart.

  8. While the clothes are stunning, I really wish there was a way we could have seen it the way McQueen would have conceived the full show. I know that this is just a fragment of a vision he probably never fully finalised. I can't help but think that the actual runway show with his involvement would have surpassed the majority of his previous collections. I just hope Gucci doesn't water this down to a sub-par range for the average consumer...

    Hope you've had a wonderful weekend!

  17. great post, and yes it was such an amazing collection.
    such a shame he couldnt have seen how much people loved it.
    that 2nd last one (with the stunning red dress) has to be my favourite.

  20. This is truly an amazing collection!!! The draping and layer of fabrics is stunning and the silhouette is magnificent. He will be missed by all those who looked forward to drawing inspiration from him. Long Live McQueen
