Alexander McQueen
For a long time I was looking for my perfect equilibrium, my mojo. And now I think I'm getting there: I've found my customer, my silhouette, my cut.
Alexander McQueen
I can design a collection in a day and I always do, cause I've always got a load of Italians on my back, moaning that it's late.
