Designer Spotlight~ Alexander McQueen

(Repost from Wednesday, September 30, 2009)



Born Lee Alexander McQueen in the East End of London, Lee started to make dresses for his sisters at a tender age. He landed an apprenticeship with Savile Row tailors and soon after, was persuaded to complete design school. Being named "The hooligan of English fashion", McQueen's designs were far from practical and his shows were all the rave because of their wild and interesting themes. Having designed for the likes of Givenchy, and later doing a shoe line for Puma, Alexander McQueen has become one of the most sought after designers of our generation. Aille Ache salutes Alexander McQueen for thinking outside the box to keep fashion fresh and wild!
