Alexander McQueen is one of my most influential designers – his innovative designs and theatrical catwalk shows make him a designer on a whole new level above others.
The headdress for his final collection may refer to bandaging used in a hospital, particularly in his case, a psychiatric one. McQueen always had a reference to birds in his collections, and the a/w 2010 was no exception, with the feathers almost like a mohawk on the headdress to demonstrate the beauty of the bird taking flight and reflects the saying “free as a bird”.
