Ayu wearing McQueen and other British designers!

[truehappiness]

It was brought up in the Enquiries section since Alexander McQueen passed away whether or not Ayu had mentioned anything about him, and someone a week or two before this person asked... Ayu had worn two (or more?!) McQueen pieces from Fall 2009 in Sexy little things' PV! qumomomo brought it up in the other thread, but I figured that people probably wouldn't recheck it... so here are some photos of McQueen pieces that Ayu has worn in memory of Lee 'Alexander' McQueen. Feel free to discuss. I'd have put this in the "photos/images" section, but I figured that it had more to do with McQueen than Ayu.

From the Sexy little things PV shots:
Altered Gareth Pugh Spring 2009 Collection in the PV:


Altered Gareth Pugh Spring 2007 Collection (or inspired by ??) in the PV as well:


More Horn of Plenty (McQueen) in the PV (altered?):

You're right! AWESOME.

Oh wait, it looks like she got another McQueen dress and altered it (Akira Noda probably...) to have a bigger ruffle?



It's at Neiman Marcus for $1,595 USD.

There are also many other instances where Ayu has worn McQueen like in her fashion checks on her blog and in SCawaii recently. (brought up by zoomzoom)

Ayu's entire outfit here is McQueen, I think.



Ayu in a pink McQueen scarf.


Ayu in McQueen sunglasses and a crocodile jacket.


If you have any other images of Ayu wearing McQueen, or of McQueen outfits that Ayu has worn that have been on the runway or anything, feel free to post them here.

R.I.P. Alexander McQueen...

[JackieRos]

holy crap maybe she wore them to commemorate him or
where these before he passed away?

[gallowsCalibrator]

Whoa! I never noticed that before!

[ohsixthirty]

very interesting...although i wish she had kept the black and white outfit intact! the skirt is way cuter than the black pants she is wearing in the pv shots. and the weird hair thing she is wearing...

oh well, these outfits are gorgeous nevertheless.

[truehappiness]

I think she would've kept the skirt but it seems like she moves around a lot in that section of the PV, so I don't think a skirt would've been appropriate, haha.

I actually like it more with the black pants...it makes the jacket stand out even more.

[truehappiness]

I just found the shirt she wore in the SCawaii shoot, I think.

I believe only the PV ones were after his passing?

Holy ****! I could make something extremely similar to that for under ten bucks, lol.

Everything was before he passed away. He passed away on 02/11/2010, Ayu filmed her PVs about 10 days+ before...

[Crystal_Ageha]

^ Aa, didn't know that.... Just a big coincidence, then. :O

[AyuWorld]

the shirt *0*

where did you get the 2 last pics? ayu posted them in her entry?

[freedreamer]

omg that's a big coincidence. I onl recently got to know more about him and i think he's fashion is brilliant...and Im hyped that Ayu is wearing so many of his clothes in Sexy little things...

[MiiSan]

Woah... first Dome Tour before the 9/11 attacks and now wearing McQueen's designs right before his death O_o

Loved the Sexy little things outfits btw *.*

[amorphose]

How cool is that! Coincidental, indeed! It makes me want to see the PV even more~ Maybe, if she really liked him she'll put a mention at the end of the PV?

What was coincidental about dome tour and 9/11? I've never heard anything about that~

[MiiSan]

^ The AUDIENCE performance (where she wore the US flag dress) and the peace theme the tour had.

LOL even when it's on sale it's still wayyyy too much for such a simple shirt.
$182 could buy me 3-4 weeks of food..

I love how ayu wears these clothes though.

[jimex289]

I would think they she would have said something. Most likely she was alerted by a staff member about his passing away.

[nemesisyume]

thats nice
good thing she finally used some amazing stuff too
