McQueen Spring 2012

McQueen Spring 2012...

..............................................................

... well well well, it seems that Sarah Burton has done it again. She really has
been having quite a remarkable year at the house of Alexander McQueen!

There's not very much to say that wont do the below images justice...

... can I be crass and say RETARDEDLY AMAZING????!!!!

From the colour combinations, the UNBELIEVABLE textures, and not to mention the gorgeous romantic slash futuristic waist pinchers: eeek!!!

as well as of course, the shoes... my god the shoes... *faint* everything that is coming out of McQueen for Spring 2012 is just totally amazing. Breathtaking to say the least...

I especially love their ad campaign, shot by David Sims featuring Zuzanna Bijoch, Zuzanna is an "ethereal vision" of romantic puffy powder pinks contrasted with Bloody passionate red.

Gorgeous...

Take a look at my few fav pieces of the season as well as the campaign below...

careful not to drool

New Love: Chloe Grace Moretz

Chloe Grace Moretz...

............................................

... is my new teen queen dream. I think she is absolutely gorgeous!

This little fifteen... YES! 15! year old has already played (or been cast in) some amazing effing roles... She played the sweet and charming little Isabelle in one of my fav flicks of the year: Hugo. And she's just finished up with Tim Burton's Dark Shadows, playing Carolyn Stoddard (a film of which I plan to see veery soon, and you should too!)

However, my best genre of film of ALL time would have to be, without a doubt, Horror. So you can imagine my face when I found out my new little teen queen is set to play effing Carrie herself in 2013...!!!!! Wow does she present an admiring film poster:

Anyway, one of the biggest attractions to this little 15 year old is certainly her darker side. All her red carpet looks are clearly influenced by her off-beat and slightly more edgy film personas, and she is often seen in darker (if not solid black) colours... a lovely look for this blondie I think.

And I quote:

"[I like to] mix high fashion with high-street fashion. Like, I'll put an Alexander McQueen jacket with a nice Topshop T-shirt. That's more approachable than, 'Here comes Chloë in her runway look."

What brilliance for such a young fashionista!

 

She still retains her young, poppy and fun teen side while mixing in some of the more punchier edgier look. I love her Teen Vogue shoot, very classic with a retro twist... Gorgeous shoot for this little one... Definately one to keep an eye out for, expect more on my blog about this girl!!

Enjoy

Alexander McQueen Fall 2012 - Paris

McQueen’s Cyber Luxe

Four seasons later as the  creative director for MCQ,

and just look how fantastic her Fall 2012 season is looking!!

A color palette of inky black, scarlet red, powder pink and ivory set the stage for the dramatic silhouettes of VOLUMINOUS mushroomy-flower-like shapes...

When I first saw these pics, I couldn't help but smile...

These dreamy evening fantasy dresses are so fun

and bubbly, and the techno visors and sleek silver space-age bow belts

add a quirky yet fun cherry-on-top!

I can only imagine how this show must have been live, 

these garments must have had the most amazing movement

as the models waltzed down the runway!!!

And of course, not to mentioned the shoes-to-match!

Breathtaking... like everything else McQueen!!!

Take a look at the gorgeous pics below

and spread the McQueen love... as we should!!
