Alexander McQueen 1969-2010


From heaven to hell and back again, life is a funny thing. beauty can come from the most strangest of places even the most disgusting places.

~Alexander McQueen


Known for his unconventional designs and amazing runway production, McQueen was the ultimate iconoclast. Throughout his career McQueen displayed a rebellion by shocking the fashion industry with controversy and avant-garde collections which earned him the nickname “the hooligan of English fashion.” His career was filled with many accomplishments from head designer of Givenchy in 1996 to his partnership with the Gucci Group in 2000 where he served as Creative Director. Through provocative and dramatic designs McQueen was able to influence an entire generation.
