Who better than Bjork of the swan dress fame to lend her soulful, haunting voice to this exclusive (tribute) soundtrack for Alexander McQueen taking into consideration both their affinities to fluttering avian feathered influences! ;) On a serious note, it is so difficult to not have gooseflesh watching this! Nick Knight presented this as Alexander McQueen was being honored with a posthumous award for Outstanding Achievement in Fashion Design by the British Fashion Awards yesterday. I bet many were even moved to tears in such an occasion. A true saga, that mad man.
