"An authoritative and moving insight into the legacy of the British designer."--Carola Long, Financial Times "Excellent."--Huffington Post "McQueen's brilliance is celebrated in this sumptuous tome."--Harper's Bazaar Arguably the most influential, imaginative, and provocative designer of his generation, Alexander McQueen both challenged and expanded fashion conventions to express ideas about race, class, sexuality, religion, and the environment. Alexander McQueen: Savage Beauty examines the full breadth of the designer's career, from the start of his fledgling label to the triumphs of his own world-renowned London house. It features his most iconic and radical designs, revealing how McQueen adapted and combined the fundamentals of Savile Row tailoring, the specialized techniques of haute couture, and technological innovation to achieve his distinctive aesthetic.

Tiny but great color
Color: 18K GOLD VERMEIL - CHRYSOPRASE
Great color with these earrings. Check the dimensions because they're pretty small. The pictures should have better scale for reference.

I nice everyday bag!
I love this bag. I use it every day. I was tired of carrying around large purses. I was tired of carrying around just wallets. I needed something to be able to hold a few things that was ease of use. This bag really did that for me it has 2 pockets one side I keep my phone in among some paper documents. The other side has spots for a few cards and whatever else you would like to put inside. It’s light weight and the strap is super cute and the design as a whole is great. Definitely worth the money for this style.

Great Bag!
I used this bag all over Europe this summer! It was so easy and convenient to have access to my wallet, sunscreen, sunglasses in one spot over my best. The bag was super cute and held a lot of items. The thick strap was really good for support and even held up during the really hot days. There are a few different pockets which is helpful as well. I recommend this bag! :)
