Alexander McQueen was a revolutionary in the visual language of fashion. Author Michael O'Neill lifts the curtain on little-known stages of the creator's life, revealing how a young man from a modest London family became an iconic figure in the fashion world, whose career was full of drama, scandal, ups and downs. Rare archival photographs, sketches, and behind-the-scenes footage reveal the path of a master for whom fashion became a form of confession and a borderline art.
This book is about passion, loneliness, inspiration, and freedom—about how one man managed to transform shock into beauty and leave a mark on the fashion pantheon that time will not erase.
Large format, coated paper, rare illustrations, archival documents, a stylish cover, a gift edition. A fascinating chronicle of the life of Alexander McQueen, previously unknown pages from the biography of a fashion icon.

You'll learn:
- how an apprentice at Anderson & Sheppard, where His Royal Highness Prince Charles's suits were made, became a rebellious couturier who forever changed the very nature of fashion;
- why the shows of this brilliant enfant terrible became the most anticipated theatrical events in the fashion world and the most radical form of self-expression;
- how McQueen managed to combine impeccable classical tailoring with revolutionary aesthetics.
