Alexander McQueen

Net A Porter really is the most amazing place on the Internet at the moment.

They have recently signed a deal with the Soho House group of Hotels where guests at their Soho Hotels in London and New York as well as guests at Babington House in Sommerset, can now have an Emergency Wardrobe service where Garments are delivered to their rooms within 12 Hours of Purchase.

They look set to tackle the Outlet Market for Luxury Goods, also online, with their latest venture the Outnet. There is little information available regarding the site but if it is anything like the Sale Pages on Net a Porter it will be amazing.

But the reason I think they are so amazing on this particular day is because they have secured Alexander McQueen's Pre Spring 09 Runway Show for exclusive view through this site.

You can view his Private Collection, watch a Behind the Scenes mini Documentary, view a Retrospective of his work and of course Shop the Looks. Most interestingly they have shot each Model one by one where a Narrator deconstructs the garments and their construction and talks about how they fit in the overall collection.



Not something to watch with your boyfriend but if you are interested in this kind of stuff its pretty amazing to have access to all this information before the Collection has even been shown to the Fashion Press. Most excitingly the collection is pretty amazing, despite only comprising a few garments, these two by far my favourites.



Also in my Inbox this morning were these little Chloe Numbers. Purple has never looked so good.
