Checkmate

Sunday, August 7, 2011
This week I thought I would share a runway video of one of my favorite designers, once again the great Mr. McQueen. He was known for his incredibly theatrical shows, and here is a video of by far my favorite collection of his. It's from a show called "It's Only A Game," and was inspired by the life size chess battle at the end of J.K Rowling's Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone. "The game" is an East vs. West competition, the east being Japan and the West being the United States of America. The designs are heavily influenced by the design patterns of each country, and was an outlet for McQueen to express his love of Japan. So here you are: Alexander McQueen s/s 2005. 



Sacrifical Move.

Happy Summer everyone!
