And the Metropolitan Museum of Art closed the doors on their Alexander McQueen exhibit. From May 4 up until Sunday (August 7), the amazing Savage Beauty exhibition gathered a reported total of 661,509 people from which 31,000 on the final weekend. That’s a pretty important number of visitors which ranked the McQueen exhibition on the [...]

The Metropolitan’s Museum of Art’s Alexander McQueen’s Savage Beauty exhibition seems to have had such tremendous success that they’re extending it by one week, through August 7. If you haven’t had your Met McQueen fix, you can also try on Mondays, when, for $50 / person, you can visit the galleries between 9:30 am to [...]

2011 marks an anniversary I wish we would never had (at least not so early): 1 year has passed since Alexander McQueen’s death. Consequently, events have been rolled to commemorate the designer and his amazing sartorial work.

Then I heard rumors that she will be wearing Tom Ford (given she walked for his women’s collection). Then [...]

From (nearly) disastrous white to classic black, that’s how we swing today. From the good to the bad, we’re seeing all kinds and colors for they were all meant to honor Alexander McQueen at the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s 2011 Costume Institute Gala. And even if I come too late with my views, it’s a [...]
