This is the truest essence of what McQueens shows were once like. He would be SO proud of this. A truly stunning show. I adored this on so many levels

[@Etienne_H]

Blind fan.

[@habibos2149]

I thought the same. Somehow he is proud. How is it wonderful when people understand your point of view?

[@joozimek9643]

Amazing collection Sarah ❤️

[@Olga_Efremov]

This is what I was thinking about too :). The people who did this, understood him. It truly captures his essence.

[@annalieseoesterlin5980]

people cringe and say its disturbing but forget McQueen was renowned for eliciting a visceral reaction from his audience by contrasting beauty and the grotesque

Jonathan Glazer needs to make more films, everything this guy has made is gold

[@malayat3137]

I love this so much! He somehow made laying in a couture dress in the mud look elegant. The whole film is a work of art, and I love the simple elegance of this collection!

[@MonsieurJADIS]

Great way to talk about the absurdity of the luxury world in a society that is falling apart, from disaster to disaster. Beautiful metaphorical scene of immigration and the mud bath. I love Glazer.

[@rigobertomatarrita1576]

So close to Mr McQueen's aesthetic... creating something pure and untouched simply to fill it with decadence. I feel close to McQueen again for the first time in a long time... Rest in Power, Mr McQueen.

[@Etienne_H]

Tf flat decadence is NOT what he was about and especially not being boring…

[@piyathuyangoda7522]

It's raw and striking. A stunning contradiction between recherche and dystopia intertwined perfectly at its simplest. I like it.

[@MoniqueSinha]

Stunning, reminds me of old McQueen shows.

[@Funes5]

I get it, they're birds....wading in the water, eating, communicating with each other across the river, even stealing from each other, all while the hunters look for them........but also notice that there are no real birds in the water or land......thats because the river doesn't support life anymore, so why risk your life being in it or even around it?!

Except...there were birds.

[@grottoserpentina9342]

Rick Funes: I totally agree. Beautiful clothes; attractive models; ugly, depressing post-apocalyptic scenery/setting. This has been a distressing year (world wide). Why add to the ugliness and hoplessness?

[@zoia5951]

Birds?????

The mud 'snow' angel near the end though... cheeky!

Yeah.... It can be said thought - provoking....... Really fantastic words towards to that kind of thought..... Great one....

[@kateforsyth1133]

I found the video disturbing which I’m sure was the point. However, I still could see the clothes. The dresses were beautiful, lyrical against the uncomfortable backdrop. I loved the clothes. Isn’t that the point in the end?

WHAT THE HELL🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@FrancisFabricates]

Also people on here acting like models don’t have to get down in the dirt and muck all the time. Having been a fashion photographer for years, getting down and dirty is a big part of being in shoots. Everyone who was in the show is fine. They would have been careful about what they did and how they did it. Also as someone who survived insane floods with a similar river here in Australia and didn’t die when I waded around in flood waters for the week it took for them to go away and helped clean mud from houses, I have a compromised immune system and even I didn’t get sick, calm down and enjoy the show

Er... I wouldn't do that if I were you, girls. Millions of tonnes of raw sewage flow directly into the Thames each year.

[@AbsentWithoutLeaving]

Swimming in the Thames is actually a thing. I'm guessing this lot got their shots, kept their mouths out of the water, and got hosed down really well afterward. Hell of a way to make a living, though.

Could somebody explain the concept please? I don’t get it. Nice clothes though.

[@dreamsofturtles1828]

I thought it envisioned a post- apocalyptic world in a river that no longer sustains life. This is how different people will react in this world; some will become marauders, some will take to sneaky thievery, some numbly explore, some will wave back in hope to another human, some make mud angels and lie down in the mud to die happily .

Beautiful clothing. Hand made. Dragged through polluted water and sand. As were the models. We have got to stop being oh so artsy at the expense of other people's labor and safety. Are you selling clothes, or is this a movie trailer? Either way, I'm disappointed.

[@maeldnt]

I don't think it was actual polluted water but it probably alludes to the condition of people working in fashion industry, I mean those who work in unhealthy conditions.
