Congrats, Kansas style to rural belle, Lindsey Wixson who fronts Alexander McQueen’s just launched spring/summer 2011 campaign. The beautiful-yet-strangely-doughy-faced teen looks nonplussed whilst caught in a thunderous storm of butterflies – prolly wondering where she left her damn net. It makes for a powerful and poignant image, indeed, underscoring one of McQueen’s perma-themes of force vs fragility. We likes.

Wixson is a serious contender to kicking Crystal Renn and Freja Beha Erichsen’s asses for 2011’s Most Campaigned Model’ title as well, appearing in Miu Miu, Mulberry and Versace’s summer ad’s. Nope, Toto, she ain't in Kansas anymore...
