Alexander McQueen (2018)

Alexander McQueen: Directed by Ian Bonhôte, Peter Ettedgui. With Alexander McQueen, Joyce McQueen, John Hitchcock, Danny Hall. The life and career of fashion designer Lee Alexander McQueen: from his start as a tailor, to launching and overseeing his eponymous line and his untimely death.

“Less of a fashion spectacle and more of a tale of the labelu0026#39;s namesake himself, McQueen is a riveting story from start to finish. From humble beginnings to the height of success, the documentary delivers a captivating recount of Lee Alexander McQueens foray into fashion. For anyone who goes to see McQueen, they will be thankful that we lived in a time where history can be recorded for review. The documentary uncovers insider footage from the early days at St Martinu0026#39;s design school through to his final showing. A group of individuals who all were involved in McQueens life to some extent it another provide a wholistic and collective view of the troubled artist. The sequential nature of the documentary worked incredibly well and the sensibility of all those interviewed showed that there really was no need to embellish McQueenu0026#39;s life. A film for fashion and art lovers as much as a film for those who seek inspiration every day.”
