The Balconette Scene


Ahh—the thespian in me is unleashed once again via this Alexander McQueen balconette dress.

Wouldn’t it be perfect for performing the balconette—umm, balcony—scene from Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet?

[Insert naughty humour here involving Romeo climbing the balcony—umm, balconette—to pursue his beloved.]

O Romeo, Romeo! Well-placed darts, thou Romeo!

I've always loved McQueen and this dress is no disappointment.
Naughty McQueen, naughty Romeo...

Then falling on to the ground just before he could grab onto the lovely dress. Oh Dang that's a lovely dress.

If you added some lacing to the bodice I could see this being a big hit in Germanic countries. Who is the German version of Shakespeare? Hmmm...
Hope you are enjoying your holidays and that you have a very happy 2009.

Pun-tastic post, lady. And that dress design might even give the likes of ME a little cleavage ...

I think it'd be perfect for anything. Even dropping water balloons off a balcony, onto the heads of unsuspecting strangers!
