Andrew Bolton on Alexander McQueen |

The Fashion in Fiction conference at Drexel University in Philadelphia opened yesterday. Among the speakers yesterday afternoon there was also Andrew Bolton, curator at The Costume Institute at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. His presentation focused on Alexander McQueen's creations and on dark and sublime inspirations in the late designer's collections.
