02UndatedFashion should be a form of escapism, and not a form of imprisonment.Alexander McQueen / quote ↗
03UndatedI want to be the purveyor of a certain silhouette or a way of cutting, so that when I am dead and gone people will know that the twenty-first century was started by Alexander McQueen.Alexander McQueen / quote ↗
04UndatedThere is something sinister, something quite biographical about what I do - but that part is for me. It's my personal business. I think there is a lot of romance, melancholy. There's a sadness to it, but there's romance in sadness. I suppose I am a very melancholy person.Alexander McQueen / quote ↗
05UndatedRap music's been around for too long now to be inspirational. The words are, but the music isn't.Alexander McQueen / quote ↗
06UndatedI always wanted to be a designer. I read books on fashion from the age of 12.Alexander McQueen / quote ↗
09UndatedI come from a different era and I design clothes for our era. I think of people I want to dress when I design.Alexander McQueen / quote ↗

12UndatedI can design a collection in a day and I always do, cause I've always got a load of Italians on my back, moaning that it's late.Alexander McQueen / quote ↗
