The Art of McQueen!

Alexander McQueen was a genius! His designs were more than just fashion; they were a work of ART! No other words can describe his talent. See for yourself...

Presenting Alexander McQueen at the Met.




































Pictures below are from latimes.com














His legacy lives on. This exhibit is a must see. Extremely dark with extravagant avant garde bodies of work. Running through July 31, 2011 "Savage Beauty" features more than 100 ensembles and 70 accessories covering his 16-year career, from the majestic to the macabre. Clothing spans from his 1992 Central St. Martins postgraduate collection based on Jack The Ripper, to the final runway collection, "Angels and Demons," presentated after his death in February 2010, and steeped in religious imagery.

The Art of Religion

Although I was born into Catholicism, as an adult I chose to be a Christian. While I was in college I took a Religious Studies course and learned about all religions. I wanted to give myself a better understanding so that I could make an informed decision on what would be best for me. A college friend of mine was Muslim and invited me to a Mosque. Out of respect I was covered from head to toe. I remember the women and children were upstairs listening to the message over an intercom while the men were on the first floor. It was interesting to experience however I did not feel it was me. In my admiration for Arabic script I eventually got a tattoo that states "With God everything is possible" - Matthew 19:26.

I grew to be the woman that I am today upon gaining my connection to God when I began to study the word and attend Baptist church. There is much respect in me for other religions and dominations as I do have somewhat of a grasp on the subject. You actually can pull commonalities from each. I like to include some of the various religions symbolisms in my designs. As you see pictured, the Like a Prayer piece is in lieu of a Rosary.





Another that I have included in my designs is the Om symbol which is a sacred syllable for Buddhism, Hinduism and Jainism.

The Art of NYFW!

So the fashion fun began at Saks where people danced with the designers, Lindy hopped or shopped until they dropped.



Sales associate and I rocking the Regal Sovereign earrings.


Then it was off to Brooklyn. (Regal Sovereign earrings pictured below)


Dropping in to Callalilai for their FNO party. Pictured below are a few of my paintings on display and for sell. I truly appreciate the support of the boutique as they are the first to take in my designs and now paintings. You have no idea of the struggle it was to get in a store and this won't be the last. Talk about humble beginnings.

Love Lily


Water Under the Bridge


Blaze Your Path With Thunder




Great Balls of Fire






Checking out RS designs.






Designers of Haknik - Their antique vintage pieces are sick!










Then it was off to Soho we went...







We had to strut our stuff in Scoop. They had someone airbrush painting in the window.



And as any normal person would I jumped up to take my picture before the FNO Scoop NYC backdrop.

I'm giving it to you Top Model style. lol



However, there was a real model in the house...Jessica White posing with her publicist.

We weren't the only ones taking pictures. Girls just want to have fun! Can you blame us?



After leaving Scoop there was a girl in the window doing yoga.

Now on to Roomservice for the after party.


Crazy nails and rings by Regal Sovereign.

Cool picture...accident shots sometimes can be interesting.

MERRY FASHION TO ALL AND TO ALL A GOOD NIGHT!
