McQueen的最後16件憧境 . The Last 16 Visions By McQueen

2010 年 的 三月九日 是個特別的日子。


在巴黎 Francois Pinault 的沙龍室裡靜靜的舉行，Lee Alexander McQueen的儀式。16件他親手裁剪的最後作品，在他自殺前一星期內都默默裁剪製做的16件作品，正式呈現在全世界眼前。直到McQueen去世，16件作品差不多是80％完成。

背景放著是 McQueen 在剪裁時聽的歌劇音樂，毛骨悚然的魔音。



March 9, 2010 was a special day.
An ceremony was quietly taken place in salon of Francois Pinault, Paris. An special ceremony for Lee Alexander McQueen. The last 16 pieces of work hand crafted by him before his death are presented to the world.

The background music was a hunting opera soundtrack. McQueen worked on the last 16 pieces while listening to this music. The pieces were about 80% finished.

古代憎侶的服裝剪裁運用在現代，完美柔和的表現。背後的翅膀輕放在完美的位子。
Clothing for the priest in the ancient times is once again revived in McQueen's hand. The wings on the back are lightly placed on the perfect spot. The use of this particular fabrics gives lightness to this piece. Most delightful.

讓我想起了俄國沙皇的公主們。
Remind me of the Grand Duchess of Imperial Russia.

McQueen式的畫下句點。非常有McQueen貫有的作風，蓬出來的紗裙，那個剪材就是McQueen式的! 聽說現場有些人看到這件都難過的掉淚了。
The last piece ended with McQueen's signature style. Many had tears in their eyes when they saw it.







主辦單位沒有提供網路時況轉播實在可惜，如果有，我是不管是否要4點爬起床我都要看的，之後這些作品連其它一係列的160件等都會出售，我覺得這16件應該放到博物館。

想知道當時McQueen裁剪這16件的心情，我可以感受到死亡在其中，但也有感受慶祝的意思，好比法老王預備給自己的陪葬品，要最好，最美的，光榮陪襯 死者走人生必經的最後一段路。

以一種方式來說，這最後的16件 作品是McQueen華麗的陪葬品。


It's such a shame that the organizer didn't provide live internet broadcast. If they did, no matter if it's 4am in the moring, i'll be there. About 160 related items are on sale for the retailer to buy. I feel these 16 pieces should be place in the museum.

I wonder what was McQueen thinking when he worked on these 16 pieces. I can feel there's death but also some kind of celebration. Maybe it's like how a pharaoh prepared his mortuary objects. They need to be the best, the most beautiful. 

In a way, these 16 pieces are the glorious mortuary objects for the great Lee Alexander McQueen.
