Alexander McQueen Autumn/Winter 2010Alexander McQueen's final collection has been shown at Paris Fashion Week.The designs he was working on before he comitted suicide a month ago were said to be 80% complete at the time of his death.
The collection of 16 designs were shown in a series of private presentations on the same day the designer's show was due to take place.
Models wearing the designs, which were as dramatic as McQueen's previous collections with rich reds, golds and hand-painted feather detailing, walked slowly to sombre music throughout.
McQueen, whose Christian name was actually Lee, was found dead in February after hanging himself at his London home, on the day before his mother's funeral.
Speaking after seeing the collection, British Vogue editor Alexandra Shulman said the presentation was "a wonderful effort on behalf of the McQueen team to put together a perfect tribute to the designer".
