R.I.P.
When recieving my April issue of Vogue I was insistant on finding the tribute to Alexander McQueen and his amazing work he produced and created when he was alive. I read that part from his 1995’s Runway ‘The Birds’ over and over and it just got to me. I don’t know if I did it justice because a runway is something you have to feel and be in to truly get it.

But I am pleased with what I made.
