All hail Mr. McQueen-part 2

Sorry for the lack of posts lately, but we have been away in New York! We went to the Alexander McQueen exhibit and it was phenomenal. It was by far my favorite part of the trip. There are these different rooms with different themes that had eerie feelings to it but that just adds to the beauty. Here are some pictures of just a few of the designs. (sorry most of the heads are cut off).








Lots of these were hand-stitched and had millions of beads.The feathers were mostly real too and they covered the body entirely. You can't see it in these pictures bu most of the heads have something on them too. The were usually mask type things that covered the whole face. All in all, this was a great exhibit and it was so amazing to see lots of my favorite designers work.
