Carine In McQueen

Inspired by the book Alexander McQueen: Savage Beauty, our talented contributing editor Lee Ferguson has created a series of illustrations in tribute to McQueen's genius, choosing her favorite women to model his designs. Of course Lee envisioned Carine Roitfeld in one of his brilliant creations, complete with black fox fur, leather straps with metal rings, and a zipper running the length of the garment — c'est fantastique ! Very special thanks to Lee for continuing to share her gifts with all of us. To see more of the works in Lee's McQueen series, visit her at A Lefthanded Life.

We should put Carine in this years MET Theme! We should dress her up in Schiaparelli and Prada then in some classics designers like Mainbocher, Fortuny, Madellaine Vionnet, Molyneux, Balenciaga and so on (me with my out of this world ideas lol)
