More From Alexander McQueen
- "I want to empower women."
- "I come from a different era and I design clothes for our era. I think of people I want to dress when I design."
- "There is something sinister, something quite biographical about what I do – but that part is for me. It’s my personal business. I think there is a lot of romance, melancholy. There’s a sadness to it, but there’s romance in sadness. I suppose I am a very melancholy person."
