Arguably the most influential, imaginative, and provocative designer of his generation, Alexander Mc Queen both challenged and expanded fashion conventions to express ideas about race, class, sexuality, religion, and the environment. Alexander Mc Queen: Savage Beauty examines the full breadth of the designer' s career, from the start of his fledgling label to the triumphs of his own world-renowned London house. It features his most iconic and radical designs, revealing how Mc Queen adapted and combined the fundamentals of Savile Row tailoring, the specialized techniques of haute couture, and technological innovation to achieve his distinctive aesthetic. It also focuses on the highly sophisticated narrative structures underpinning his collections and extravagant runway presentations, with their echoes of avant-garde installation and performance art.
