Research and Communication Task 3&4

 

Fox, Chloe (2012) Vogue on Alexander McQueen, London: Quadrille Publishing

For this task, I have decided to firstly look at this book on Alexander McQueen. McQueen has been a firm favourite of mine in terms of fashion designers for a while now and I find I can reference him in almost every project I do as his work is so varied and interesting.

 

ELLE.com (2004) Alexander McQueen. Available from:                  http://www.elle.com/runway/spring-2004-rtw/g24870/alexander-mcqueen-51776/ [Accessed      20th November 2017]

To carry on this research, I found a picture in the book of a design in the book that I found particularly intriguing and decided to see if I could find the rest of the collection. This was very easily found on ELLE.com, I could see the entire collection through an 84-picture slide show. I liked that these pictures also gave me a slight insight to the show.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Daily Mail (2015) Never before seen images from 2004 Alexander McQueen show, Daily Mail, 17th March

To conclude this task, I wanted to find some more in-depth information on the collection. I came across this article from Daily Mail that looked at the collection more closely and also showed ‘never before seen images’ from the collection. I loved the dark/gothic type photography form Nick Knight, the article then went on give a brief biography of his life and included multiple pictures from his ‘Savage Beauty’ exhibition at the V&A. I thought this was a good addition to the article as it gave background information to his life and the collection.
