Alexander McQueen: Savage Beauty
Last night I was walking to meet a friend in Knightsbridge when I literally stopped in my tracks and let my jaw hit the floor. I’d completely forgotten about the Alexander McQueen: Savage Beauty display in the Harvey Nichols windows!
I’m really bummed to be missing the Alexander McQueen: Savage Beauty exhibition, currently on display at the Costume Institute at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. But being in London has to be the next best thing. London’s luxury shopping destination, Harvey Nichols, has been exclusively chosen to exhibit a commemorative window display of Alexander McQueen’s iconic designs. To commemorate the late Lee McQueen, Harvey Nichols has 15 of his pieces on display, spanning over a decade. The UK department store is the only one to have been chosen for this honor – and though the showcase won’t match the real thing in NYC, the pieces in the windows are still stunning to behold.
Please be aware I took these pictures at night and they are slightly blurry, but I really wanted to share them with you.
A truly stunning exhibit! If you are in London, I recommend you head down to Harvey Nichols as the collection will be on display until the end of May.

Alexander Mcqueen FW2011-2012 Shoes
Sarah Burton was influenced by The Ice Queen and her court for the Alexander McQueen fall winter 2011 – 2012 collection. As always, I want – I got focuses on the crazy shoes.
This season they continue with the platform base and takes some influence from fetish shoes with all the laces and stiletto heel. I’m liking the boots and they come in some different treatments like leather, croc and pony.
You see this shoe which will is the standout of the bunch with it’s own heel spike. I wonder if this shoe will actually be produced for retail. It’s a bit cyberpunk for the Ice Queen.
As always these shoes will be hot commodities. You can try your luck with the selection Holt Renfrew brings in or you can call your closest Alexander McQueen shop and get on the waiting list.
UPDATE: I found some more great photos to share.
