McQueen on Melrose


Sitting on a Melrose corner is a new kid in town and goes by the name Alexander McQueen.
He brings with him 'Angel of the Americas' a strapping work of stainless steel art whose essential job is to greet all visitors upon arrival.

The corner store on Melrose and Orlando is built with a dramatic skylight through which the 'Angel' sculpture is ascending to observe the gorgeous Los Angeles skyline.
"Los Angeles is the City of Angels. I wanted something to reflect that." - Alexander McQueen

The Melrose shop will carry McQueen's full line of women's and menswear as well accessories and luggage.
