The next designer that I wanted to explore and to see how he expressed himself through fashion was Alexander McQueen. He has inspired me a lot, not only by his designs, but by the way that he presented fashion to the world. He wasn’t limited by the frames – he was open to new opportunities and ideas. The designer didn’t have limits – he could create anything into a fashion design or a fashion show. One of his shows was intentionally ‘flooded’, others – used decorations that are ‘out of this world’ to impress the viewer and to show his statement.
Designer’s name was actually Lee MqQueen, but when he wanted to break into fashion, he changed his brand name in order to fit the society of fashion norms. From the early childhood he was influenced by everything mythical and dark, especially Jack The Ripper. Growing up in the East London, there were many of stories about him, so one of his first collections was influenced mainly by them. The style of the designer stayed the same with all of his development and fame, even though it has gotten more feminine and high-end.
The designer is very famous for his interpretation of leather and different patterns in his clothing, as well as snake patterns and small bright detail. He also is an all-time lover of skulls – they are everywhere: shoes, scarves, dresses, accessories and many many more. This is something that helps him to make a fashion statement and to show who he actually is in the fashion world. So I have decided to pick up many of those garments and to form them into a casual look. For this look, I have gotten inspiration only from the separate pieces, instead of the whole look itself.

The next look that I was inspired by is taken from one of the Haut Couture collections that were presented by the designer. As he loves everything that is extraordinary and out of the borders, for his Haut Couture line he creates real pieces of art. the dress that has inspired me the most is made out of feathers and captures mythic and style at the same time.
Alexander McQueen is one of my all time favorite designers, and not as much because of his style, but more because that he wasn’t afraid to speak up and show what he really thinks. It is just amazing that there are people like him who can say everything that they want to say through a piece of clothing and I was incredibly happy to get to explore the designer’s style and intentions better!
