Garance Doré with photos from the Alexander McQueen: Savage Beauty exhibit at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. I was so fortunate to get to see the exhibit when I was in New York last month, even with an hour-and-a-half wait in line to get in! It's unbelievable seeing that kind of artistry and craftsmanship up close; I kept having to firmly shove my hands into my pockets to resist the urge to reach out and touch everything. Doré didn't include any photos from my favorite collection - the gorgeous, meticulously-tailored wool tartan pieces from "The Widows of Culloden" - but her selections offer a glimpse of what made the experience so transporting.
