There's really not much more that can be said that hasn't already been said. He was truly a revolutionary designer and artist. I've always loved how he was able to marry art and fashion so seamlessly and beautifully. He will be missed.

MQUEEN SPRING twentyten, brace yourselves...
Paris-based designers have really latched on to the idea of minimalism this season, which is great and all... But THANK GOD Mr. McQueen shook things up. This collection was suberb. The silhouettes, colors, fluidity... I'd expect nothing less from McQueen (Let's forget that Target collaboration happened).



Now for the detailzzzz. INSANE IN THE MEMBRANE.

I thought this was entertaining. Fashion is not always functional... I think the Rodarte boots & Herve Leger heels were the most wearable here, no? Gimme Gimme!
