From what looks like an Alice In Wonderland inspired Barbie Resort/10 collection, to an Alien/Reptilian infused Spring/10 collection, Alexander McQueen can make unusual look oh so chic.
This year we've seen a few designers shy away from extravagant designs or what's seen to be risky in this financial climate. It was good to see that McQueen is still experimenting with digital printed fabrics and still leading the way of showmen ship. With a spectacular visual of a projected video with Raquel Zimmerman lying with snakes, a sparkling runway and these beautiful prints, I think McQueen has set the recession standard with a big F.U to the G.F.C.
