Although no where close to being a fashionista, and looking a bit out of place amongst the most exuberant fashion crowd at this exhibition… But it was this years must see as I understood it from a friend who had been fascinated at the MET version back in 2011.. and didn’t shy away from seeing it again in London over and over
My high expectations were thoroughly fulfilled by the extreme, daring and art-like pieces on show, as well as by the handsomely dark scenography. The « cabinet de curiosité » room filled with extraordinary accessories was in itself worth the trip…
Mc Queen shows were in themselves works of art, in my opinion much more so than many of the « pulling the brain » pieces seen in museums. Clearly thought-provoking and fashion industry-critics, they reveal an interesting personality, quite far from the image I have of a fashion designer. Definitely one to be missed..
