Classic catwalk moment sparks possible legal feud
McQueen is considering taking legal action over the new Cadbury Flake advert which features a girl floating in a dress in space, identical to the classic moment of a hologram of Kate Moss floating above the runway.

The advert’s creative director, Bailie Walsh, teamed up with the designer for the catwalk show.

A spokesman for the company told The Independent newspaper: 'This is about Baillie Walsh's work. It was his house style that attracted us rather than any previous work he had done.

'The Alexander McQueen show is not relevant. His previous work was one of many of our visual references but not the only one. We would not accept the charge of imitation.'
