According to an update from Alexander McQueen’s Twitter feed, the “Savage Beauty” retrospective of McQueen’s work at the Metropolitan Museum has received close to most likely now more than half a million visitors. While there’s no word on whether that includes folk viewing the exhibition more than once, it’s still a phenomenal achievement, and one that’s totally merited. [Alexander McQueen/Twitter]
