They Died with Their Boots On

January 20, 2010 — 11:09 am

We talked about them. I blogged about them once too — when I was still into the whole Gaga thing. It’s the Alexander McQueen alienesque boots. The kind of shoes that are otherworldly and are not meant to be worn by muggles on a daily basis; unless your name is Daphne and your last name is Guinness.

Words on the street are: the shoes are not freshly from Alex’s brain. He copied the idea from an early 80’s band, called The Tubes.

It’s not a major, jaw-dropping news because after all, a lot of designers take inspirations from old movies or ancient cultural references. But, let’s just take a look anyway.

If you’re like me: can’t stand heavy metal and the eighties, I recommend you to fast forward to 1.00.

Impressed?

Scott Ian McFarland is a menswear and knitwear fashion designer who graduated from my school, Academy of Art University. I love how his clothes look very light because knitwear tends to look very heavy.

I would love to own every single look that he sent down the runway!
