Alexander McQueen Savage Beauty

Last week I had the great opportunity to go see the Alexander McQueen Savage Beauty exhibition at the Victoria and Albert museum, London.

Savage Beauty is an exhibition celebrating the extraordinary creative talent of one of the most innovative designers of recent times, Alexander McQueen: it is the first and largest retrospective of McQueen’s work to be presented in Europe.

I have been a huge fan of McQueen’s from a young age, therefore I felt very privileged to get to see his creations in person. It was so overwhelming and inspiring. It was AMAZing. I would highly recommend a visit, but remember to book in advance.
