Tim Burton Fashion Editorial for Harper's Bazaar

I LOVE Tim Burton.
As a matter of fact many people tell me I am possibly his and John Waters' and Richie Rich's and Vivienne Westwood's love child.
I just understand the way he is wired because I am wired much the same way.
To celebrate a retrospective of his work at the Modern Museum of Art in NYC (http://www.moma.org/visit/calendar/exhibitions/313), the October issue of Harper's Bazaar produced a candy-corn Halloween-a-licious spread with photography by Tim Walker featuring jaw-droppingly beautiful clothes by Balmain, Ralph Lauren, Alexander McQueen, YSL, Atelier Versace, JPG, Armani, Nina Ricci, Chanel.. the list goes on ...
One of these looks strikingly reminds me of the much ridiculed human hair collection that Chris March did at Bryant Park for Project Runway... Goes to show how much those judges know...I championed and still champion that collection and everything I have seen Chris do. In my opinion, he is by a landslide more talented than Christian Siriano. There, I said it.
Tim Burton makes a cameo on the spread dressed as Jack from "The Nightmare before Christmas" with really great tributes to characters from his movies like Lydia from "Beetlejuice" and my favorite "Edward Scissorhands".
























Happy Couture Halloween!
