Mondays style copy: Alexander McQueen last collection

This week is commemorate Alexander McQueen week !
He left us on 11 Feb 2010 and the one year anniversary will be on Friday. This week I am devoting my posts to the legacy left by this amazing man.

I think he was an extremely talented and inspirational designer leading the fashion world to new heights. Remaining avant garde while being successsful in the commercial world, he shifted the way people look at fashion and brought alot of controversial but amazing collections onto the runway during his time.

Inspired by his Autumn/Winter 2010 collection (unfinished), my simple outfit utilises the basic colors of Red, Gold, Silver that were used. The theme centred around theatrical imagery and medieval religious looks, using those colors as well as detailed embroidery.

Check out Alexander McQueen's last collection to see what i mean !

Chick vs Dick 'The Modelling Challenge' Part 3 - the body pose

this one took me about 30 shots before i got too tired and gave up, thus selecting this photo as the best of the lot. another tough shot trying to achieve by 'self-timer' mode because i had to get in position, adjust my hair and try to have a decent facial expression all in 10SECONDS !

think the flooring doesn't do justice to the body contortion. it looks easier than it seems. didn't expect the strain on my neck to have that much effect but i'm actually feeling sore in the section where my neck meets the spine. totally forgot about it the whole day i was out shopping, then suddenly felt the effects in the evening thinking it was due to my bag. but i finally figured out that the sore feeling was actually from the pressure exertion for this picture. ah the sacrifices for creative expression.
