Alexander McQueen

Alexander McQueen, the high end brand named after the designer, sells all kinds of clothing items a woman can think of.

The British designer Alexander McQueen provokes emotional reactions—extreme ones. One season, his audience sheds tears of frustration over his inhospitable choice of venue; the next, tears of joy over the haunting beauty of both the clothes and the staging.

Though he’s close to 40, the controversial McQueen is hardly ever written about without the phrase “enfant terrible” following his name.

And yet, despite the perennial bad-boy tag, he’s won all the big awards given out in London and was even honored by Queen Elizabeth as a Commander of the British Empire in 2003.
