Speaking of Vampire Blues

One more week of work. And by that I probably mean one week straight.
Window 10– the center window on 5th avenue at Bergdorf Goodman–will
finally be finished, after working on it since March. And then, finally, off to
the studio for what remains of 2011. That little garret of a studio has finally
begun to beckon to me after months of nastiness and leaks and clutter and
construction and mice: I finally like it there a little bit.

But first, a little more time devoted to this guy:

Brilliant as he was, for the second time this year I find myself trying to concoct a 

worthy headdress for one of his dresses (or Sarah Burton's I suppose), and am finding 

that the surprisingly dry and slightly hateful Alexander McQueen monograph from 

the Met show is not helping me at all.
