<p>Favorite looks from Alexander McQueen's <a href="http://www.style.com/fashionshows/review/F2010RTW-AMCQUEEN">final collection</a>. &nbsp;I am always inspired by McQueen's ability to traverse seeming paradoxes so elegantly: novel and traditional, alien and earthy, androgynous and classically feminine, bombastic and delicate. &nbsp;And then, of course, there was our mutual affection for <a href="http://www.style.com/fashionshows/complete/F2006RTW-AMCQUEEN?page=2">tartan</a>. &nbsp;</p>
<p>Sigh... Lee Alexander, you will be sorely missed.</p>

<p>British painter Annie Kevans (whom I've mentioned <a href="http://www.jonesfife.com/blog/2009/7/16/all-the-presidents-girls.html">before</a>) has a show at <a href="http://www.perryrubenstein.com/exhibitions/2010-02-12_annie-kevans/">Perry Rubenstein</a>&nbsp;featuring work from her <em>All The Presidents' Girls </em>series: portraits of US Presidents' alleged mistresses and illegitimate children rendered gesturally in diluted oils. &nbsp;Her subjects range from the iconic to the nearly anonymous, but all are imbued with a diaphanous vulnerability. &nbsp;They are the casualties of power.</p>
