Inspired by English paganism and folklore, Alexander McQueen's ruched black and cream silk-organza off-the-shoulder gown is an exquisite fusion of fashion and couture-like craftsmanship.
McQueen once said, "It is important to look at death because it is a part of life. It is a sad thing, melancholy but romantic at the same time. It is the end of a cycle. Everything has to end.

These and four other new shelters along the Lakeside Way – a 27-mile long walking trail around the reservoir – form part of a series of art and architecture interventions within the Kielder Water and Forest Park.
