The Alexander McQueen Spring 2012 campaign proves that this visionary fashion designer's legacy continues to live on. Surreal, ethereal and alienesque, the ad campaign focuses completely on the avant-garde nature of each ensemble showcased. Like a fashion-forward angel who has a fixation with floral delights, the model is otherworldly while the outfits are femininely experimental.
Shot by fashion photographer David Sims, the Alexander McQueen Spring 2012 campaign stars model Zuzanna Bijoch. Her milk-white skin complements the powder pink and blood-red designs stunningly while the radiant backdrop highlights her own beauty. The hazy dreamscape does nothing to detract from the lace and ruffles. Soft and romantic, the entire ad campaign is like a vision sent from God. Instead, it is all Sarah Burton's vision, which stays true to the late McQueen's very own.
