Image
Style is not about the clothes, it's about the individual
Alexander McQueen
Image
I think sometimes I might scare the editors, because they might feel they're getting old and they're not understanding it. The problem lies on their side of the fence, not mine. I come from a different era and I design clothes for our era.

Image
I have been skiing since I was in school, but I'm not great. I am never going to break an Olympic record, I just want to go down the hills, on red or blue runs, but not... black.
Alexander McQueen
Image
There is no better designer than nature
Alexander McQueen
Image
There is a hidden agenda in the fragility of romance.
Alexander McQueen
Image
I want people to be afraid of the women I dress.
Alexander McQueen
Image
These beautiful models were walking around in the room, and then suddenly this woman who wouldn’t be considered beautiful was revealed. It was about trying to trap something that wasn’t conventionally beautiful to show that beauty comes from within.
Alexander McQueen
Image
Let me not forget the use of my own hands, that of a craftsman with eyes... that reflect the technology around me.
Alexander McQueen
Image
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.

I feel more Scottish than Norman.
Alexander McQueen
Image
Beauty can come from the strangest of places, even the most disgusting of places.
Alexander McQueen
Image
I like things to be modern and still have a bit of tradition
Alexander McQueen
Image
You can only go forward by making mistakes. I'm twenty-seven, not fifty-seven. I'm not Givenchy, I'm Alexander McQueen.
Alexander McQueen
Image
I like the concept of dressing people. I used to not care whether people bought the clothes or not, but I kind of like it now. I wouldn't label that commercialism it's more like I do this work because I want people to wear it.
Alexander McQueen
Image
I think I should be a president. President of the United States.
Alexander McQueen
Image
Now I design what I want to wear, and it works that way.
Alexander McQueen
Image
For people who know McQueen, there is always an underlying message. It's usually only the intellectual ones who understand what's going on in what I do.
Alexander McQueen
Image
I want to be honest about the world that we live in, and sometimes my political persuasions come through in my work. Fashion can be really racist, looking at the clothes of other cultures as costumes. . . . That’s mundane and it’s old hat. Let’s break down some barriers.
Alexander McQueen

For me, what I do is an artistic expression which is channeled through me. Fashion is just the medium.
