Next month, the corner of Melrose Place will be introduced to its latest co-star: the 3100 square-foot Alexander McQueen flagship, designed by Will Russell of Pentagram. In addition to high ceilings, curved walls, and floors made from mother of pearl, the store boasts a nine-foot metal sculpture by Brit artist Robert Bryce Muir called Angels of the Americas. (In the City of Angels—boom!) Says McQueen, “I am excited about… being more accessible to a community that will clearly understand and appreciate the glamour in my work.” Rendition of the store exterior after the jump.
