Fashions inspired by Darwin - Alexander McQueen in London
Alexander McQueen's 12-inch boots on Paris catwalk were not made for walking... | Mail Online:
12-inch platform shoes were part of a collection inspired by Charles Darwin’s The Origin Of The Species.
But the fantasy fauna inspired fashion didn't end there.
Models with their hair teased into devil-like horns, strutted the catwalk in minidresses decorated with all manner of colourful, elaborate skins.
Ruffled hemlines were frilled to resemble feathers, and vibrant fabrics were printed to resemble amphibian-like breastplates.
The high-tech show set then morphed into a prehistoric underwater scene, lending something of an otherworldly feel.
