Alexander McQueen Pre-Fall 2012

A recent project to redesign a chair based on a historical figure’s childhood motivations, was happily assigned the legendary alexander mcqueen, who has created the most beautiful, thought-provoking artful collections unlike any other; and sarah burton’s grand pre-fall collection for mcqueen is filled with lavish museum-worthy gowns – full-sleeved victorian confections, floral embroidery and black mousseline, velvet and emerald, always lace and tulle in the purest couture, and less elaborate yet still glamorous, cropped pants and white poplin shirts, gentlemen-inspired jackets in perfectly feminine silhouettes.
