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.

More quotes by Alexander McQueen
I'm prepared to forget about money if it affects my creativity because, remember, I started off with nothing. And I can do that again.
Alexander McQueen
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
I think there is beauty in everything.
Alexander McQueen
Clothes and jewellery should be startling, individual.
Alexander McQueen
I'm not interested in being liked.
Alexander McQueen

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.
Alexander McQueen
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
Give me time and I'll give you a revolution.
Alexander McQueen
It's not my vision when I cover a woman's face with a chador. I got the idea from a 'National Geographic' photo. I'm just showing their plight in the world.
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
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
You've got to know the rules to break them.
