dream moon night
I am the shadow on the moon at night/Filling your dreams to the brim with fright.
beautiful growing-up knowing
When we were growing up and saw a Ray Harryhausen movie, we were interested in how it was done. But thank God we got to go through the magic of seeing it before we knew how it was done. You were able to get this beautiful, pure, visceral response to something without knowing too much about it.
people strange unusual
Live people ignore the strange and unusual. I myself, am strange and unusual.
inspirational motivational dream
Visions are worth fighting for. Why spend your life making someone else's dreams?
children ambition always-trying
Anybody with artistic ambitions is always trying to reconnect with the way they saw things as a child.
thinking want heavy
Whenever I pick up a jacket and it's heavy, I think, 'Oh, I don't want to wear that.'
dresses moments lifetime
It has been the experience of a lifetime to work with Catherine Middleton to create her wedding dress, and I have enjoyed every moment of it.
beautiful clothes design
Alexander McQueen's designs are all about bringing contrasts together to create startling and beautiful clothes and I hope that by marrying traditional fabrics and lacework, with a modern structure and design we have created a beautiful dress for Catherine on her wedding day.
success believe hard-work
Do what you love and believe in, and work hard.
girl college
I wasn't the trendiest girl at college.
art fun creating
The range of genre that we is very diverse, which makes for a fun and multi-dimensional show, but creating something that flows, depending on what kind of vibe the show is going to be [loud dive bar, small theatre, festival] is a bit of an art a haphazard art at times.
creativity house important
With McQueen you have so much at your fingertips. That is what's so incredible about this place. Lee built an amazing house, an English house - and that is very important - where creativity rules, where you can do whatever you want to do for the shows because no one's saying: where's your basic dress, where's your three button jacket?
moving thinking people
I think maybe that as time goes by there will be more newness but because I was part of what it was before it's not like coming into a house and saying it's all about me. I don't feel like that. It really is all about McQueen and the things that he was trying to say and about moving that forward, making it relevant, making it desirable, making it into what people want to wear.
eye love-is romance
I don’t shout the loudest, and I’m quite shy, which was why I was reluctant to throw myself into the public eye. I love beauty, craftsmanship, storytelling and romance, and I probably don’t have the armor to survive the relentless competition that exists in this particular world. But I have my own toughness.
