We want to be in her wolf-pack, badly. K-Trone, we don't get why we haven't had drinks with you yet. We can wear all black. We can be friends. You can tell us when we're being pushovers and bitch us back in to place. Please. Please, let's be friends, Kelly?
In a story dubbed The Real Mcqueen in the May 2011 issue of Harper’s Bazaar UK, Kate Moss, Daphne Guinness and Annabelle Neilson pose in designs by the late Alexander McQueen. Amazing.
Check out the rest of the editorial at Design Scene.
“I really don’t understand the idea of a celebrity stylist. Is it a real job? I know there’s unemployment, but frankly the railways need to be fixed too. Elizabeth Taylor was never told what to wear or paid to carry a certain handbag. I was sort of out of the world for 15 years when I was married. And now that I’m back in it, there are all these new things. The power of the stylist is an entirely new concept to me.”

“The fashion community in general got me much earlier than everyone else. But actually, I felt truly embraced by this London cultural movement, that McQueen, Isabella, Daphne Guinness wing of the English crowd. I remember when I first started doing photo shoots, people would say, ‘My God, you look so much like Isabella Blow, it scares me.’ And McQueen used to say, ‘Oh, my God, your boobs!’ He actually grabbed both of them and said, ‘Even your boobs are like hers!’ ”
My opinion counts betch!
“Sarah’s brilliant — I loved her last collection. She worked with Lee for so long so she knows what to do. She’s not Lee but I think he’d be happy with her doing it. She learnt from him. Other than McQueen, I don’t love this resurrection of dead labels. There are so many talented young designers and so many of them end up working under other people’s labels. They should be doing their own thing.”
-Daphne Guinness reveals her love for Alexander McQueen’s successor, Sarah Burton.
She's serious.
“I truly hate the word [eccentric]. I’m actually very grounded … eccentrics are almost asexual, and that is not something you can say of me, by any means.”
-Daphne Guinness reveals.
