Alexander McQueen Fall 2013

Alexander McQueen Fall 2013

Ten stunning creations inspired by the Tudor Queen, Elizabeth I, is what Alexander McQueen’s Sarah Burton presented at Paris Fashion Week, yesterday.

Queen Elizabeth I

Chain-mail dresses, metal leggings with cut-outs, ornately beaded corsets and lots of pearl detailing resurrected the Sixteenth century Monarch – best known as the Virgin Queen – into the Twenty-First century.

The McQueen website states, “Hoop skirts, caging and corsetry enhance and idealize a quintessentially feminine silhouette and introduce an erotic undercurrent further suggested by stockings, suspender belts and harnessing!”

Clearly, the queen has been deflowered with some visible S&M.

See all the ten looks from the catwalk:
