Summary:

British designer Lee Alexander McQueen's collections synthesized his training in Savile Row tailoring, theatrical design, and haute couture with references spanning time, geography, mediums, and technology. Taking a look at McQueen's design process, this book documents the designer's diverse sources of inspiration by displaying McQueen's fashions alongside related artworks. McQueen's encyclopedic references range from ancient Greece and Rome to Tibetan silk brocade patterns, 17th-century Dutch painting, the prints of Goya, and the films of Stanley Kubrick. In each of these cases and beyond, examples of McQueen's work are displayed alongside artworks from LACMA's permanent collection.
