McQueens collections always reference a myriad of inspirations. This season everything from the science fiction imagery of H.R. Giger to photography of the Great Barrier Reef. While McQueen entitled this show Platos Atlantis, it felt far more like an intergalactic space trip.

The models wearing the Spring 2010 collection by McQueen looked as though they were from another planet, with added brow bones and rebuilt noses. With hair crocheted and braided into fin-like cornrows, one could not help thinking "Star Trek" Klingon cool. Adding to the futurist feel were two cameras on huge cranes that rotated up and down the runway, projecting images of the audience onto a giant LED screen.

These images were interspersed with scenes from a custom-made film by Nick Knight of a woman morphing into some bizarre aquatic creature as snakes slithered over her naked body. Throughout the show, what sounded like a giant caged animal growled on the soundtrack as the speakers hissed and sparkled.

  • Inpresionante lo adoro.

  • Another planet? Intergalactic space trip?? STAR TRECK?!?!?! You know, McQueen was actually envisioning the evolution of the human being into subaquatic species as the ice caps melt result of global warming and pollution... He probably wasn´t even thinking about spaceships and aliens when he designed this collection.

    May his legacy continue.
