You must not leave. You must stay here and wait. Watch as I slowly pull back the layers. I’ll do my best not to rip the already fragile pieces, the dusty corners, the darkened spaces. This will hurt. You won’t enjoy yourself. But when I’m done, you can walk away and leave your pain with me.
“Alexander McQueen challenged and expanded our understanding of fashion beyond utility to a conceptual expression of culture, politics, and identity. He was a provocateur and a raconteur who told stories through his clothes – stories that might draw from the past or other cultures, but were relevant to the here and now. He had the mind of a poet and the heart of an artist. He was a true romantic, in the Byronic sense of the word, who channeled the sublime.”
—–Andrew Bolton, curator, The Costume Institute at The Metropolitan Museum of Art
