In a sea of ever more opulent emporiums designed by the usual luxemaster suspects (think Peter Marino, Bill Sofield, Michael Gabellini), Alexander McQueen stores swim against the high-gloss current. Bold, vaguely apocalyptic, and often shot through with a distinctively ghostly take on baroque exuberance, the shops are the work of Pentagram’s William Russell. In the below video, the London-based architect reflects on a decade of work with McQueen–both the PPR-owned house and the man himself, known as Lee to friends. “He wanted a collaborative relationship, rather than someone imposing a look or a feel onto him,” says Russell of developing the initial store concept with the designer. “He was a true genius–you don’t meet many in your life, and he was an extraordinary man.”

From Andy Warhol and Lady Gaga to…the wonderful world of Disney? This year, Barneys New York went from downtown to main street for its holiday campaign, a high fashion take on Disney magic. Launched last month at Barneys’ Madison Avenue flagship with the help of Sarah Jessica Parker (who sported L’Wren Scott-designed lace mouse ears for the occasion), “Electric Holiday” comes complete with an animated short that features Mickey, Minnie, and the gang in designer duds along with fashion world figures such as Alber Elbaz, Daphne Guinness, and Steven Meisel transformed into cartoons by John Quinn, Disney’s character art director. And then there’s the merch. Among the selection of limited-edition holiday items–a goofy Goofy hooded towel, technicolor popcorn–is this silver vinyl mouse. Splashed with the signature stripes of Paul Smith, it’s a toy that kids of all ages will take a shine to.
This is part of a series of elegantly wrapped December posts about desirable goods that we suggest you purchase with the vague intent of giving to others and then keep for yourself.

In case the ancient Mayan prediction turns out to be true and the world does end tomorrow, Central Saint Martins fashion graduate Minki Cheng has created a collection of apocalypse apparel for surviving extreme conditions in style (+ slideshow).
“The collection was developed by looking into the abilities living things in nature possess to protect themselves,” Cheng told Dezeen. “In comparison, humans are relatively vulnerable.”
Cheng researched waterproof, heat-proof and radiation-proof fabrics used in wetsuits, body armour and sportswear to select the materials for the collection.
Bold-coloured plastic fur and translucent scales cover some of the garments and are used as details on others.
“The plastic fur symbolises the function of keeping warmth, as well as functioning as protection like an armadillo,” said Cheng.
The quilted jacket, coat and skirt filled with down are also designed for warmth in harsh climates.
The down clothing is enveloped in a silk and cotton-mix fabric that has been digitally printed with a design inspired by living creatures.
Pastel pink and bright yellow contrast with dark greens and greys to form a balance between natural and surreal colours.
“The colours mostly come from chameleons and sea creatures, mixing with shapes of body armour and wetsuits,” Cheng explained.
Pink skull caps and tights highlight the vulnerability of the body under the clothes.
The collection was first shown at the Central Saint Martins graduate show earlier this year.
We’ve also featured Icelandic designer Sruli Recht’s Spring Summer 2013 collection which includes translucent lambskin and stripy skunk fur – see it here.
