Saturday Ruminations on McQueen: Part II

I know that everyone is referencing Leigh Bowery for these over-the-top lips from McQueen. (And I love the McQueen neckpiece, btw.)







But my immediate thought was Carol Burnett as Gloria Swanson in Sunset Boulevard. Maybe the size isn’t there but the attitude is.

When I was putting on lipstick yesterday I was worried it was coming out McQueen-ish.

I think McQueen's references were varied and the more you study the collection the more you'll uncover.
