Topshop Takes a Stab at McQueen



Thanks to the reader who brought this to our attention!

This Topshop dress is by no means a carbon copy of Alexander McQueen’s, but it is very clear that the people at Topshop were moved—just as much as the rest of the fashion world was—by the late designer’s “Plato’s Atlantis” collection.

So they made a dress “inspired” by the one McQueen sent down his SS10 runway on Amanda Laine’s back.

You can “channel your Space Age supermodel in the baroque print dress,” but the zany print is not nearly as offensive as the fact that Topshop went ahead with production after Alexander McQueen’s passing. Pretty tasteless, no?
