So I decided to take a visit to the McQueen flagship store a couple days ago on Bond St. I got off at Bond St station but was totally lost! Someone kindly directed me the direction and I must have walked for about half an hour down Bond St to find that the store is riiiightt at the botttom - no where near the station! The best part was it just closed when I got there! great! but hey I saw what was in the window and it was still worth it! The main piece was the yellow lace dress from the Resort Spring/Summer 10' collection. The lace was very graphical like some kind of mechanical/gothical architecture work - very intricate and all the details showed so well over the flamboyant yellow colour. Through the window I saw a colour palette of primary red, blue, yellow,grey and black - back to basic colours.
The next day I got off at Green Park station which is much closer to the store (learn for next time!) and managed to see the garments close up. And yes the tailoring is impecable! beautiful smooth cuts. Also saw some printed chiffon - which reminisces Avatar. I'll post up the S/S 10' collection later but the snake prints and whole theme of extra terrestial/reptile does reflect the art of the film.
