His designs fused creativity with exceptional technical skill, leading to a glittering global fashion career and accolades such as 4-time British Designer of the Year and a CBE for services to the fashion industry.

He was also recognised as International Designer of the Year in 2003, and worldwide celebrities like Nicole Kidman, Sarah Jessica Parker, Bjork, Michelle Obama, Beyonc and Lady Gaga have all worn Alexander McQueen.
