The latest "resort" collection from the late great Alexander McQueen's fashion house looks decidedly steamy to me:

The Edwardian lines, the brass embellishments, the thick buckle-corset-belts..  what's not to like?

Of course this is well out of the budget of most people, and even if I did have the cash these sorts of establishments do not cater to someone of my generous stature.. but a girl can dream!

I am very much looking forward to these design elements filtering down to the cheaper stores. 

One thing I really want to know is.. what sort of resort would these outfits be suitable "resort wear" for? Gorgeous as they are I can't exactly see someone lounging by the pool in these getups.. what do you think?
