I absolutely adore Alexander McQueen. It's so hard to comprehend that we won't ever see his work again. It's nice to know that the label will carry on though by his former assistant Sarah Burton. She worked so closely with McQueen over the years so if anyone can recreate the essence of McQueen, it's her. I don't think we'll ever really fully accept the change of designer because he really was a one off. One things for sure, he will never be replaced.
These are just a few of my favourite outfits from the menswear fall 2011 collection. There's lots of blocked colours used on the garments, with a consistent black and white theme with accents of bright reds and yellows. McQueen was notable for his 'unwearable' pieces, the statement garments which were just created for aesthetic reason rather than logic. This collection features more functional garments, but with the exceptionally high, almost dracula-like collars, there's still that distinct element of McQueen that we all love.
