Introducing the late great’s Plato’s Atlantis Spring/Summer 2010 Collection.
Alexander McQueen will always be remembered as a designer who wasn’t afraid to take chances, a gamble which single-handedly helped him to change the modern fashion landscape as we know it.
His last and most memorable Spring/Summer 2010 collection has been communicated through a futuristic formula full of aquatic creatures and computer-generated couture art. Titled Plato’s Atlantis , the collection comprises brightly coloured prints inspired by butterflies, moths, beetles and giant squid – engineered sea-reptile prints and designs that mimick the skin of sharks and dolphins.

Frederic Malle has workd with some of the most prestigious perfumers or ‘noses’ in the industry and is the man behind Edition de Parfums.
In June 2000, Frederic started Edition de Parfums, an original proposition in the already crowded fragrance industry where every brand and celebrity seem to have their own scent.
