An intimate and revealing look at the personal and professional life of the fashion world's most visionary designer.
This incredible volume strips away the layers of legend surrounding Alexander McQueen, revealing the sartorial genius and the true history of the man who reinvented modern fashion. Uncovering new details about Lee Alexander McQueen's humble childhood in East London, author Judith Watt traces the young designer's ascent—from his graduate collection at Central Saint Martins School of Art and Design to his over-the-top runway shows to the designs he created just days before his death at age forty. Providing new insights into the dark passion and inspiration that guided each fever-pitched runway show, this fully illustrated portrait delivers a truly comprehensive, in-depth look at the most provocative designer of a generation. Illustrated throughout with McQueen's personal drawings and ephemera as well as a mixture of exquisite catwalk and editorial fashion images, Alexander McQueen: The Life and the Legacy is every bit as stunning as the designer himself.

He saw people as they were, grasped their cracks and complexities, embraced them. He loved woman, really adored them---and not just for our statuesque beauty but for our fragile as well as our strength, our ghosts and demons alongside our accomplishment. (查看原文)
What followed was a relentless drive to bring his vision of not only how women could look (empowered, frightened, sexual) but also how fashion could be---multilayered, visually extraordinary, a fantasy that expressed sometimes the darkness and sometimes the light of being human. (查看原文)

Watt uses fashion language, not just another fancy coffee table book. It's not all pretty. True to some extend. Worth the time reading.
