Alexander McQueen — IDENTITY.

Lee Alexander McQueen was a British fashion designer and couturier. He founded his own Alexander McQueen label in 1992. His achievements in fashion earned him four British Designer of the Year awards, as well as the CFDA's International Designer of the Year award in 2003.

As a designer, McQueen was known for sharp tailoring, historicism, and imaginative designs.

He explored themes such as romanticism, sexuality, and death, and many collections had autobiographical elements.

McQueen's catwalk shows were noted for their drama and theatricality, and they often ended with elements of performance art, such as a model being spray painted by robots (No. 13, Spring/Summer 1999), or a life-size illusion of Kate Moss (The Widows of Culloden, Autumn/Winter 2006).

❝Fashion should be a form of escapism, and not a form of imprisonment❞
