# Alexander McQueen (@alexander-mcqueen)

Alexander McQueen was a British fashion designer known for technically accomplished, emotionally charged runway work. The work is associated with sharp tailoring, historical research, dramatic silhouettes, and runway presentation as narrative. Major examples include the bumster trouser, Highland Rape, Plato's Atlantis, and his tenure at Givenchy. A balanced account also considers a legacy combining exceptional craft with themes of beauty, violence, nature, and identity.
