More quotes by Alexander McQueen
If you're lucky enough to use something you see in a dream, it is purely original. It's not in the world - it's in your head. I think that is amazing.
Alexander McQueen
Now I design what I want to wear, and it works that way.
Alexander McQueen
Animals fascinate me because you can find a force, an energy, a fear that also exists in sex.
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
For me, what I do is an artistic expression which is channeled through me. Fashion is just the medium.
Alexander McQueen
I work with people I admire and respect. It's never because of who they are.
Alexander McQueen
Clothes and jewellery should be startling, individual. When you see a woman in my clothes, you want to know more about them. To me, that is what distinguishes good designers from bad designers.
Alexander McQueen
Some designers are so airy-fairy people can't connect with them. I hope people can relate to me, to a normal person who just happens to be a fashion designer, that people can take me as they find me. It's not the designer's job to care about what people think. Whatever else I've done, I've never tried to be something that I'm not.
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.
Alexander McQueen
Fame should be left to the film stars.
Alexander McQueen
I don't want to be too proud, but I have a good personal style.
Alexander McQueen
I am married to work.
Alexander McQueen
Some couture collections have everything including the kitchen sink! Everything gets thrown on to make it look expensive. I find it grotesque when clothes hit you in the face and there's no room for fault. But I don't expect to turn things around all by myself. I'm not a saint.
Alexander McQueen
There has to be a balance between your mental satisfaction and the financial needs of your company. (But) I always remember that it's the fantasy, the artistic side, that makes customers want to buy the straightforward black pants.
Alexander McQueen
There has to be a balance between your mental satisfaction and the financial needs of your company.
Alexander McQueen
Really, what I'm aiming for is world domination!
Alexander McQueen
There is a hidden agenda in the fragility of romance.
Alexander McQueen
It's good to know where you come from. It makes you what you are today. It's DNA, it's in your blood.
Alexander McQueen
I use things that people want to hide in their heads. War, religion, sex things we all think about, but don’t bring to the forefront. But I do and I force them to watch it
Alexander McQueen
The explosion of museum exhibitions is only a mirror image of what has happened to fashion itself this millennium. With the force of technology, instant images and global participation, fashion has developed from being a passion for a few to a fascination - and an entertainment - for everybody.
