Lubna SethiVisionaire's Tribute To Alexander McQueen
Visionaire, the fashion and art bible, has created a limited edition book in honour of Alexander McQueen – and they’ve roped in some of the finest names in fashion to help them.
The book features contributions from the likes of Nick Knight Steve Klein, Mario Testino and Lady Gaga, and includes images inspired by McQueen, each of which is printed on paper embedded with wildflower seeds – and, when they’re planted and watered, the pages blossom along with your creativity!!!!!!!!!!
As the fashion world knows well, out of tragedy can often come great beauty. Back in 1996, Visionaire first featured the provocative designs of young iconoclast Lee Alexander McQueen, and from thereon in he was a treasured, continuous inspiration for the magazine. In 2003, McQueen went to Visionaire's New York offices to discuss collaborating on a special issue--an issue that sadly never came to be. But now, five months after his tragic suicide, Visionaire presents a grand, limited-edition tribute to his genius that's as captivating as the man himself.
Ornamented in gold brocade from his Spring 2010 show, 58 Spirit: A Tribute to Lee Alexander McQueen is bursting at the seams with inspiration, both artistic and literal.
It's a heart stopping, beautiful, unique tribute to one of the greatest designers in recent memory, a rare tome that inspires special collaboration with artist, reader, and nature.
