The McQueen effect
Written By Laila Lu on Mar 1st, 2008
I got goosebumps when I saw the pictures of Alexander McQueen’s Fall 08 collection—beautiful, romantic and elegant beyond words. I feel touched not only by his genius imagination but also the way it actually tells a very sweet story— ”a girl who comes out of the darkness to meet a prince and become a queen.” From the ballerina dresses to the couture-like final piece, we can absolutely get the ideas he is trying to convey. This is what a fashion show should be and it has definitely woke the on-going Fashion Week up.
His inspiration— Mata Hari, Queen Elizabeth

gorgeous! so much of character and imagination on the runway. although I didn’t like the shoes and most of the hair
the dresses are so beautiful, almost magical.
GOD SAVE MCQUEEN!His vision of the British Empire revisited was magnificent.Some of the most beautiful and amazing clothes I have ever seen.The whole collection took my breath away.Alexander’s ode to Britannica was indeed a labour of love.McQueen Rules!
I thought the collection was amazingly beautiful. It’s a huge departure from his Mad Max Beyond Thunderdoom past.
