Alexander McQueen set out to "empower" the women that wore his designs. For the first time, The Costume Institute celebrates one designer at their annual exhibit at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York: Alexander McQueen. The exhibit showcases his work from the beginning to the end. This retrospective collection of his most famous pieces, allows us to appreciate his genius and delve into the complexity of his physics-defying creations. His collections are defiant, intellectual, and romantic, yet almost all are misunderstood. McQueen never gave a fuck when it came to making a statement, or hurting the feelings of the fashion neophytes of the world. His work, intimate and pure, spoke to his many admirers.
"Alexander McQueen: Savage Beauty", will open to the public tomorrow, May 4, 2011.
