Alexander McQueen Fall/Winter 1996, "Dante"

7:11 HAIL the great debra shaw! The mask with the crucifix and her tounge out , she single handedly solidified an ICONIC moment in the fashion history

Timmeh Queen absolute icon, with the way she was moving she resembled a python

[@philmitchell639]

whats the meaning if her tongue being out

[@allneonlike5543]

@@philmitchell639 well it's a statement piece, a black woman sticking her tounge out to mock the crucifixion of christ is prob considered the most evil sin of all! Women are not allowed to defy Christianity, especially black women....... i mean look what happened to Eve.

Love how the male models stood the side and checked the girls out. It's like a big party! Always can see the mile on the models's face at the end of Lee's show. Guess all of them loved him so much and were proud of him :)

[@BerlinBoy1996]

At the end I started to cry so much, I couldn't stop for half-an-hour. Whenever I realise how big is the loss of Lee, I just can't keep myself.

He was a beautiful spirit. I know how you feel.

What's remarkable is that this collection doesn't date - it still seems as fresh as ever. Both eerie and enthralling.

[@aliceedinburgh9203]

You can really tell this is the first collection where he had a decent budget to create--this is so much better than any of his previous collections in terms of fabric quality, etc.

[@arhamishtiaq1571]

Seriously a work of art. The aura that he creates through his work is intense and emotionally charged. I got a hold of the Savage Beauty book, and I was stunned to see almost all the pieces with such technical craftsmanship. Truly a legend of fashion, who will always stay alive in our hearts. Respect to the passion and talent.

[@goldenglove4663]

love this collection over 24 years ago....wow.

[@SweetJeopardy]

The first of his collections in which I found refinement as well as his quirkiness and weirdness. What will become his signature look is being polished here. Wonderful collection!

[@debrajames2764]

Extremely gifted with a tormented soul as evidenced by both his creations and his death.

[@Olga-kh5hr]

Always brings me to tears. Iconic and adored. The king still stands and no one will ever come close to his creative genius. 🍎

[@jennifersun2638]

I think what made him so remarkable was he was able to find inspiration from different elements and by juxtaposing these different elements he would recreate something new in his own vision. He had an obsession with religion too, his last collection was also very heavily religious. I find his sad demise very troubling, it pains me when talented people take their own life, but tis the burden of genius I suppose.

[@marianavivanco4152]

Or maybe someone killed him for his genius and non conventional attitude

[@slowdiver5732]

I weep and mourn for 1996. One of the best years of my life.

No fashion bloggers,no famous people,no millennials sitting front row only people who cared about fashion.

[@aaronarakawa]

are you implying that non-elites attended high fashion shows? that'd be incredibly uninformed to be honest. fashion bloggers now=fashion journalists then. famous people?? like is that a joke... fashion shows have always been riddled with them. and millennials, who cares if they get to attend fashion shows? you make no compelling argument as to how thats a negative. being a millennial does not correlate to not caring about fashion...

[@Musikkind]

Whoever attends a fashion show obviously cares about fashion. At the same time they can care about their blogs, fame and they can be a millennial.

You said it, man. And they’ve all run out of ideas because most of them aren’t actually talented that it’s become a competition to create something no one’s ever done, but it’s always post-modern trash.

[@madison__baylee]

Adrian 1996 i think it's only sacrilegious if you want it to be. The show and the clothing tell a story, these are the characters. It's okay to reinterpret ideologies and not believe in them necessarily....it's...fashion.

[@Meta.Empress]

His ancestry is pagan. Satan is a construct of Christianity- demonizing the pagan God of pleasure, Pan. Christian churches are built on pagan sacred ground. What escapes most Christians is the pagan symbolism implanted into every Christian church because they enlisted pagans to build them. Their churches are still pagan shrines.
