Recently while reading coco&kellys blog, I came across a rundown of the Alexander Mcqueen show. I was instantly reminded of Cecil Beaton's work and the movie 'My fair lady'. These clothes are beautiful -and while I'm not sure of their wearability ( where do normal people wear clothes like this? Prom, weddings perhaps? ) I am sure they are beautiful. If you like the show there are some things here I think you could take away from it for everyday life other than the flats shown on the models as opposed to heels.
Assymetry but balanced:
THIS is how to do feathers, Christian ( of project runway fame )silver and blue -spectacular. The silver reminds me of the old hollywood look Ralph Lauren was promoting last year
Princess Skirts ( A-line ):
the feathers are a bit odd, but I love the red shoes and the lines of the fun, flirty dressa little longer than the other parts of the collection - would work better at knee length I think.
Such beautiful embroidery -love the coat and slippers
I can't tell if I love or hate the print.....
Empire waists:
the model has beautiful posture. Woudln't this be a beautiful wedding dress on a beach?The Sari just makes this, ya know?
Roman gowns:
Hidden by the russian military coat, but I'm sure it's delicious!I even like the poufey coat thing!
Leggings:
I'm not usually a fan of leggings -but they really work in this collection!
Headwraps:
I love this assymetrical sweater coat with the emboidery. This headwrap is really pretty and warm looking!
I think her arms would get cold -but hey, you loose 50% of your body heat through your head!

Coats:
This fur is SO chic. I hate the plaid leggings ( Wicked witch of the north, anyone? )and that hair needs some therapy PRONTOThis coat is adorable! And ermine -so luxurious :-)
And of course, McQueen being McQueen - he had to take it a little over the top. This coat so reminds me of the coat Audrey Hepburn wears over her gown in the Ballroom scene in My Fair Lady. Beautiful and DRAMATIC
