Alexander McQueen Savage Beauty

摘要

London was one of Alexander McQueen's greatest muses: the fashion designer and couturier, born the son of a taxi driver in the city's East End, would draw inspiration from everything from its history to its club scene to Brick Lane. Having cut his teeth as a tailor's apprentice on Savile Row, McQueen went on to study at Central Saint Martins, and could often be found in the V&A, trawling its archives for inspiration: 'It's [the V&A] the sort of place I'd like to be shut in overnight,' he once said.
