Alexander McQueen as shot by Steven Meisel for Vogue US.
Full shoot available on Vogue.com, along with some interesting commentary and thestories behind the creation of some of the outfits. For example, from the photo above I would never have guessed that the shiny bits on the top of the dress were hand-painted glass microscope slides!

McQueen is one of the very few designers who have pulled off the medical look without it looking hackneyed… So much respect for him.
From the same collection as the first dress, was another that was made of test tubes, appropriate as the theme of the collection was an “insane asylum.”
I remember the first time I saw that first dress (the red one) I had it hanging on my wall for years.. Love!
