// ALEXANDER MCQ BY SARAH BURTON \\

Alexander McQueen ready to wear collection spring 2011 by Sarah Burton at Paris Fashion Week

Here is my pick of the best pieces in order of theme & catwalk sequence!!!

The collection in one word: Breathtaking 

{Inspiration: The Jellyfish}

{ Inspiration: The Pheasant}

{Inspiration: The Swan}

The most anticipated show of Paris Fashion Week was Alexander McQueen.

The first by the late designers protégée Sarah Burton whom certainly did not disappoint with an impressive collection featuring wheat sheaf dresses, feather gowns & finale music that left the audience very emotional.

Inevitably successor Sarah Burtons style was compared to the late designer McQueen, Style.com quoting, "Where his narratives were often dark, discomfiting things, she opted for a nurturing atmosphere: a pagan, Earth-Mother-ly spirit."

I still definitely saw McQueen's characteristics incorporated into the collection throughout which is not a surprise as Sarah worked beside McQueen for 15 years & clearly had a symbiotic connection to his very particular vision.

There was a monochromic theme to start & steadily took on the evolutionary theme by nature: with certain pieces comprising of nature inspired colours, patterns & detailing such as leaves of black leather & enveloping masses of feathers as seen in the 2nd last image above.

The last three pieces especially blew me away into fashion nirvana.... I immediately thought they were inspired from three different feathered & ocean friends within nature: A pheasant, A Jellyfish & A Swan but that's just me!!!

Bisou,

// OASIS/Xposé FASHION BUS \\

Pampering session... scrumptious breakfast spread... surrounded by an abundance of fabulous sheer, satin & sequins garments... not a bad way to start the morning!!!

This was the beginnings of the amalgamation of two major fashion sources - Oasis and Xposé.

They have teamed up to launch the Oasis Christmas Collection for 2010 - which the lovely Hannah Lawrence (as seen in street style pic below) from the Oasis head office in the UK informed me will be filtering through onto the shop floors within the next few weeks. They also chose this opportunity to showcase the New OASIS/Xposé Fashion Bus, exclusively to Ireland.

The first stop for the Fashion Bus was beside the Oasis flagship store on St. Stephen's Green today, where I was lucky enough to get my hair & make-up done by the lovely L'Oreal & Peter Marks guys n girls as well as meet the charming & oh so well dressed winner of 'Style Wars' David Greene. I seized the opportunity to interview the lovely David impromptu which I promise to post up on RoCkInnFaShIoN at some stage over the weekend. The fashion bus is then moving onto Dundrum shopping centre  tomorrow the 8th October and completing its journey in Cork this Saturday 9th of October. So if you & your girls have no prior engagements for the next couple of days I would definitely recommend making a trip down.

I have inlcuded a few pics that I took at the Oasis flagship store today to show you what you can expect!!!!

Enjoy
