McQueen honored in London
Print Edition
STARS turned out to honor the late “enfant terrible” of British fashion, Alexander McQueen, on Thursday, the opening party of a London show celebrating the designer five years after his death.
More than 70,000 tickets have already sold for the “Savage Beauty” show, which opened to the public yesterday at London’s Victoria and Albert Museum.
The director calls it an “emotional homecoming” for the designer who committed suicide aged 40 and is remembered as one of Britain’s most influential cultural figures of recent times.
The fashion world was out in force for the opening, attended by Britain’s David and Victoria Beckham and models Naomi Campbell, Kate Moss, Eva Herzigova and Poppy Delevingne in full ball gowns.
They were joined at the dinner by Mexican-born film star Salma Hayek, English actor Colin Firth in a tuxedo and Britain’s Princess Beatrice.
On view from yesterday are 240 outfits typifying McQueen’s distinctive and occasionally bizarre style.
