Long Live MyQueen. Looks like Samsonite has done a hat trick with Alex. According to Shaun at the 14th street NYC signature Boutique, WWD announced the launch of a design collaboration for the Travel Stylish. The Headhunters in the luggage jungle did well –it was Marcello Bottoli, poached from Louis Vuitton, who landed the commission.
MSRP will remain in the $300-$600 range. For the less daring, a crocodile print offering, but for the Die Hard McQueen Fans–a white version stylised with a Rib Cage Print. Of course, my fave feature is the THUMBPRINT silver toggle. Let’s hope the FBI doesn’t have him registered.

McQueen’s dresses are really the best if you have a long waist and narrow hips. The guy started his career doing menswear and you can see it clearly through the tailoring that he does. I still haven’t figured out if I want to purchase a Novak–your thoughts yumyum? I like some of them, but the shape is awkward to close if you put a book and something like the LV french wallet inside. I’m still looking. I haven’t seen his luggage line, I don’t luggage when i picture McQueen, but for my money his dresses are the way to go each season,. Try one, if it fits, you’ll buy one every season. Love your column, when do you have more articles planned? I downloaded your blog and read it from Seattle to Ft. Worth. You should be a writer.
