The 2011 MET Gala: Michelle Williams in Miu Miu

One of the dresses that really paid tribute to Alexander McQueen, was the custom made Miu Miu dress that Michelle Williams wore. Seeing the golden birds on her gown, made me instantly think about McQueen's great inspiration when it came to birds. Images of McQueen's S/S 2008 collection, containing the iconic dress with eagle wings covering the top half, and the white - and black swan dresses from his A/W 2009 collection, pop up in my head. I really do applaud Miu Miu and Michelle Williams, as they achieved the main aim for the evening; waking our thoughts, and honoring the true and incredible artist that McQueen was.
