If i could read his mind

These are from Alexander McQueen’s SS/05 collection. I had a close look at the two pieces that resemble American football attire at the Superheroes exhibition at The Met. The top left one has beautiful Jap-inspired waves as part of the design, something like those you see in Japanese tattoos. The waves are always at the back of my mind now and i’m waiting for the day i can have them tattooed on my lower calves.

It’s a pity i couldn’t find an enlarged image of it. So while searching, i browsed through the rest of the collection and i really adore the whimsical, carnival feel the clothes exude. There’s like a role behind each outfit, The Princess, The Footballer, The Walking Carpet, The Human Carousel, The Schoolgirl…
