The
exhibition, organized by The Costume Institute, celebrated the late
Alexander McQueen’s extraordinary contributions to fashion. From his
Central Saint Martins postgraduate collection of 1992 to his final
runway presentation, which took place after his death in February 2010,
Mr. McQueen challenged and expanded the understanding of fashion beyond
utility to a conceptual expression of culture, politics, and identity. -

Remember
Sam Taylor-Wood’s dying fruit? Things rot. . . . I used flowers because
they die. My mood was darkly romantic at the time.” - See more at:

Andrew
Bolton: This particular dress came from a collection called VOSS, which
was all about beauty. And I think one of McQueen’s greatest legacies
was how he would challenge normative conventions of beauty and challenge
your expectations of beauty—what we mean by beauty. This particular one
is made out of ostrich feathers dyed red. And the glass slides are
actually microscope slides that have been painted red to give the idea
of blood underneath. And there’s a wonderful quote in association with
this dress, where he talks about how there’s blood beneath every layer
of skin. And it’s an incredible, again, very powerful, powerful piece. -
