Discover the legacy of Alexander McQueen and trace his rise in high-fashion in this gorgeous monograph that covers his time with Givenchy and Gucci, his greatest inspirations, and his work with artists including Björk, David Bowie, Dita Von Teese, Beyoncé, and many more.
Fashion’s enfant terrible, Alexander McQueen was one of the most inventive and admired designers of his time.
It was when he founded his own house in 1992 that he imposed his provocative, innovative style on the fashion world, followed by later collaborations with the likes of David Bowie, Céline Dion, and Lady Gaga.
This handsome volume covers McQueen’s sources of inspiration, his iconic creations, the evolution of his style, the fashion houses where he worked, his favorite models, and his codes and influence on couture fashion.
Alexander McQueen provides an in-depth look at the man himself and a better understanding and appreciation of his style, which is at times as audacious as it is timeless.
