McQueen said, ‘It is important to
look at death because it is a part of
life. It is a sad thing, melancholy but
romantic at the same time. It is the
end of a cycle – everything has to
end. The cycle of life is positive
because it gives room for new
things.’ McQueen often contrasted
fashion’s glamour with darkness and
death.
