Costume or Obsession-Worthy? Alexander McQueen Fall 2013 Lookbook (Forum Buzz)

The presentation of the lookbook also deserves a shoutout. Rather than facing forward in a a straight-ahead kind of pose, the model brings movement and life to the clothes while also showing them off in a more three-dimensional way. But, not all forum members are as convinced about this lookbook and collection as I am.

“This is too much on the costume-ish side for me,” valliaddict decided. “This is what happens to designers when they run out of ideas. They use the same silhouettes, but they just embellish them more. I’m bored by her,” he concluded.

CommanderTMugler posted, “I feel like they’re costumes for a new production of the Salem Witch Trials. The shoes are hideous.”

Softgrey, fortunately, agreed with me on this collection. “Well—I am wonderfully surprised by this,” she declared. “I find it extremely wearable and desirable… Damn! I’d love to look like that!!! It’s very ‘Sasha Fierce’,” she laughed. “The whole thing is brilliant.”

I’m just gonna leave you on that note. Brilliant.
