PEEPING MCQUEEN

Alexander McQueen Spring/Summer 2014 Campaign Short-Film


The newest video posted today by Alexander McQueen for the Spring/Summer 2014 was truly great. It was directed by Steven Klein and it is featuring fashion icon Kate Moss. This short-film follows a woman in the dark streets being followed by a stranger. The film felt very surrealist, especially with the opening scenes of the creepy-esque imagery being displayed on the televisions. I enjoyed the dark, ominous, vibe in this film. Paying hommage to the 1960's British thriller Peeping Tom by Michael Powell, in which a young film fan tried to film the fear in the eyes of the women he follows, Klein did a wonderful job of setting the mood and environment for this film. The soundtrack was perfect and is a work of art in its own. I love the leather pieces worn by Moss and I've been a fan of McQueen's collections recently. I recommend checking this video out and also checking out McQueen's Spring/Summer 2014 ready to wear collection.
