Alexander McQueen’s inimitable creative genius was nowhere more evident than in his futuristic "Plato’s Atlantis" collection. It envisioned a future of human reversion to an animal state, with computer-generated imagery suggesting reptilian markings. As Sarah Mower noted: “Each dress was a work of computer-generated art crossbred with McQueen’s couture-based signature cut.”
