There is no better designer then nature
Alexander McQueen

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
The world needs fantasy, not reality. We have enough reality today
Alexander McQueen
I hate it when people romanticize Scotland.
Alexander McQueen
When I'm dead and gone, people will know that the twenty-first century was started by Alexander McQueen.
Alexander McQueen
I never look at other people's work. My mind has to be completely focused on my own illusions.
Alexander McQueen
I don’t want to do a cocktail party. I’d rather people left my shows and vomited.
Alexander McQueen
