See the brownish blonde girl with the teal streak and bitter sense of wisdom in her eyes? I picked this up after she threw it at some passerby.
stupid girl
your vision is gone
it left in his pocket
how will you get on
you don't have to blink
it's already black
your eyes they live
in the groove of his back
stupid child
you don't recognize me
you're ashes and cinders
no, not finally
you do what you want
go ahead sell your soul
was it worth it though
to share a cereal bowl?
stupid girl
you let him slip in
those nightless hours
weren't really with him
i see you now
for what you really are
a cowering girl
who hid away too far.
except not really.
amazing colletion and gorgeous writing/poem:) i love the grunge of mr mcqueens collection!
ReplyDeletemy favourite line is "you're ashes and cinders" makes me think of alot of thiks..awesome poem

This collection is so insanely early 90s... I am having flashbacks of outfits I wore in 5th grade, only taken to the next level. In all honesty, the only outfit I can really get into is the first one. The general criticism I've seen thrown at this collection is that it is not very creative and somewhat dull. Unlike your poem. What is your opinion? Also I sincerely hope it is true in your best dream you shared a drink with Bea Arthur!

I don't think the collection as a whole is very inspired. Yes, it's derivative but I'm a fan of the styling and the character that it creates, even if it's been seen before.
ReplyDeleteI really did dream that. I woke up intoxicated with the memory of sitting at a hard wood bar next to bea.
and thank you mel<3
Awesome, love the styling and could definitely see myself in some of these...

mhm yes, so grungey! me likes.
ReplyDeleteMissing McQueen!
ReplyDeleteThe styling rocks it. But the poem takes it to another level. L.O.V.E.
ReplyDeleteI see a Rodarte FW 2010 resemblance in the dress in the last picture ... I like this though, the styling is nice if not incredibly unique. Having said that, I would probably wear all of these anyway. Except maybe the denim dress.
ReplyDeleteI feel like this poem was written about me. Or someone I know. It's eerily familiar in a way I can't describe. Marvelous work, sam, naturally ;)
