Alexander McQueen: Savage Beauty (Fashion Studies)

I know diddly about fashion but always loved McQueen for the artist and showman he was, this is one of the best book purchases I've ever made. Made with care, even the skull hologram cover is uber cool, allowing you to study all the nuances on every page. Be warned this book is HUGE..... you're gonna need a bigger shelf

A great book for anyone interested in fashion. Well put together with lovely images. Alexander McQueen's was a genius and this does a great job of highlighting that work.

Fantastic book, arrived in perfect condition and in great time

Absolutely love this book! Bought it for a coffee table book & didn’t think it would be as heavy, big or such good quality! Its amazing i love the hologram on the front its really different & looks great very different to any other coffee table book i have its perfect!

Incredible book and a real treasure. This honours the journey of the much missed, unique and beloved designer With a stunning collection of crystal clear colour photographs and excerpts of McQueens own creative thought process. One of the best coffee table/inspiration/resource books out there. Plus the holographic cover is amazing !

It a stylish book that i think the creative McQueen would of approved of. The cover flickers from a scull to McQueen face blending what i see as his creative talent and him, something worth spending a few min's or longer to admire. The book inside is fantastic is shows some pieces from all along his career in stunning print. All the pieces are mounted on Mannequins and i feel picturing them like this may not do them justice. I think i may of liked to see other images such as the Kate Moss Hologram Autumn/Winter 2006 as a selection of picture formats (presenting his talent as a artist) or maybe images taken of him in the Face say 1998 taken by Knight was such a powerful image. But never the less a book worth having and am happy to have it

The lenticular cover of a portrait of Alexander McQueen changing by degree into a skull is a stunning piece of book design. This is the book that was produced for the Metropolitan Museum of Art exhibition in New York. Clothes are shown on lifeless white painted manequins and mostly photographed in black and white. In a way it is a pity that this book wasn’t expanded and re-edited to include the changes which were made for the”Savage Beauty’ exhibition at the V&A London. It would have been good to see working notes or drawings of how the designs started out. Terrifuc book for students of fashion.

Absolutely lovely book, worth every single penny!

Alexander McQueen was one my favorite designers, so I didn't think twice about ordering it, and I received it quickly in pristine condition. The holographic outside cover alone sold me, but the pictures inside are gorgeous quality. I am still surprised at the price of this book, as I would have expected it to be at least twice as much, so I feel it is a great value for a beautiful piece. I now display it proudly in my home. Ironically, because of the price it's my least expensive coffee table book, but it's by far my favorite. If you appreciate McQueen or just fashion in general, don't hesitate to get it.

This is a stunning book showcasing some of Alexander McQueen’s most iconic works. The photography and art direction is gorgeous with plenty of full-page photographs, and the accompanying information about his work was very interesting to read. This will be a much-treasured book to have on my shelf!

Ho avuto la fortuna di trovarlo usato qui venduto da Amazon in condizioni veramente ottime. Parlando del libro io lo consiglio vivamente: ottime stampe, colori e materiali. Un bel prodotto anche a livello estetico e visivo. Racchiude alcuni capi del genio McQueen, e anche alcune interviste scritte alla Burton. Interessante anche l’introduzione. Affascinante la copertina. Il libro è anche abbastanza grande come dimensione. In fine posso dire che non mi ha deluso affatto questo libro.

Amazing quality and amazing coffee table book
