British fashion arrived on my doorstep this morning.
Literally.
The first book about McQueen is now out – Alexander McQueen: Genius of a Generation. I had pre-ordered it from Amazon weeks ago and have always wanted to pick up Andrew Bolton’s account of Anglomania: Tradition and Transgression in British Fashion, so added that in, too. I had forgotten all about them until I heard a knock at the door this morning.
There are they are, crisp and unopened, as I sit here looking at a to-do list that is a mile long.
I’ll give them the respect they deserve and pour over them uninterrupted, with my afternoon tea.
Tea time, of course, is 4 o’clock.
Any good Brit or Anglophile worth their salt knows that!
