An intimate and revealing look at the personal and
professional life of the fashion world's most visionary
designer. This incredible volume strips away the layers of legend
surrounding Alexander McQueen, revealing the sartorial
genius and the true history of the man who reinvented modern
fashion. Uncovering new details about Lee Alexander
McQueen's humble childhood in East London, author Judith
Watt traces the young designer's ascent—from his graduate
collection at Central Saint Martins School of Art and Design
to his over-the-top runway shows to the designs he created
just days before his death at age forty. Providing new
insights into the dark passion and inspiration that guided
each fever-pitched runway show, this fully illustrated
portrait delivers a truly comprehensive, in-depth look at
the most provocative designer of a generation. Illustrated
throughout with McQueen's personal drawings and ephemera as
well as a mixture of exquisite catwalk and editorial fashion
images, Alexander McQueen: The Life and the Legacy is every
bit as stunning as the designer himself. With more than 175 full-color photographs
