More quotes by Alexander McQueen
I am married to work.
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
I am an avid follower of the news, and sometimes you just can't take any more war, any more disasters, and you want to remind yourself there's beauty in the world.

Alexander McQueen

Alexander McQueen
Beauty can come from the strangest of places, even the most disgusting of places.
Alexander McQueen
Life to me is a bit of a (Brothers) Grimm fairy tale.
Alexander McQueen
I believe in that one-on-one sell. I don't really believe in flooding the market with loads of goods that don't mean much, and you lose your identity.
Alexander McQueen
There’s blood beneath every layer of skin.
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'm not interested in being liked.
Alexander McQueen
I used flowers because they die. My mood was darkly romantic at the time.
