Alexander McQueen Retrospective

[jus10nstrader]

I love McQueen and I love Gaga, and yes, I believe that Gaga sporting the armadillo shoe brought MORE of an audience to McQueen. I don't believe that fact can be denied. HOWEVER the woman that needs to be associated with McQueen is ISABELLA BLOW. Get it right, it's McQueen and Blow not McQueen and Gaga.

[PrestonCarey90]

Does anyone know the music behind this piece?

[xopenheartx]

Little Monsters, I'm a Little Monster myself & adore Gaga as much as the rest of you. But honestly, you cannot deny that her fashion & style cannot compare to the genius that was and forever will be McQueen.

[TheKirschWasser]

made me cry... ok, he always did!

[EmmyTheScientist]

yes he didn't design clothes to be wore !!! but he did an art that no one before him dared to even imagine!! he is an artist and shame on those who compared Lady Gaga to him!!! his art goes beyond what lady gaga can ever achieve!!! she doesn't do any art!!! she just want to be recognized and she is !!! but she's nothing compared to McQeen's genius !!!

[cyspeckeen]

does anybody know the name of this song? PLEASEEE

[Dollhousedecay]

Frustrates me so much to see that gaga thing disgrace McQueen.

[LadyGagaFan858]

@Dollhousedecay Disgrace? Lady Gaga loves Alexander McQueen and he liked her too. She helped get his name even more popular than it already was.

[Clariccy]

@LadyGagaFan858 "She helped get his name even more popular than it already was."

Oh PLEASE

[MrM1m0MONSTER]

@Clariccy LISTEN. Lady GaGa loves Lee Alexander McQueen and he loves her too. I don't care if you like her or not BUT give her some respect. At least she's one of the very few famous people to wear his clothes like casual clothes! You don't get to see a lot of famous people wear his clothing! Besides, she has worn his clothing for a couple of occasions like the VMAs for example where she wore one of the Fall '98 collection and the beautiful dress worn at last year's VMAs!

[13crapa]

@MrM1m0MONSTER . and so?

[Clariccy]

@MrM1m0MONSTER Sorry, no, I don't respect plagiarists. And McQueen is above that. So kindly shut the fuck up.

[Clariccy]

@MrM1m0MONSTER He was an icon way before she wore his clothes, and people (unlike you), knew him way before Kelly Clarkson was on the scene.

[MrM1m0MONSTER]

@Clariccy Excuse me but you're just plain rude. McQueen isn't just a fashion designer, he's an artist. And trust me, I HATE CELEBS & PLAGIARISTS. But Lady GaGa seems different somehow. You should grateful that at least SHE has got the balls to step out in something outrageous!



[gakima92]

sigh sarah burton is ok but she will never be like McQueen.

[PiaVargasFashion]

a fashion revolution



[TheFemmeFi]

wow i wish he was still here with us <3

[underage4men]

Ok, I like Lady Gaga, but I find Alexader McQueen's fashion shows to be much more fascinating in my opinion. And I'm sure Lady Gaga is a huge fan of his as well.

[phoneylala90]

@underage4men

You're so right. Quite frankly, I'm tired of people always associating him with Gaga. His shows and creativity in general are so superior to her.

[ellisrose]

@phoneylala90 Alexander McQueen was an original artist.  Gaga is derivatrive - on a good day.

[imnotglencoco]

0:29 that's Victoria's voice from bean lol

[Throatxwhores]

i only skewed over the conversation at the bottom because its pretty pointless. at the end of the day, if it werent for the designers gaga would be pretty damned boring..her music is quite generic...although the people that listen probably havent heard anything but the gibberish on top 40 radio. now stfu, im trying to watch the video!

[LaDyRaNoRoCkS]

no one will be like him

[LukE1AtTo]

Who would dislike this video?

[NinaKRicci]

Brillent

[rkoking92]

8 stupid fuckers didn't understand art ....XD god bless u hobos.......

[haihly90]

[TylerTokyo321]

[tschuju]

R.I.P. :(

[KantankerousCoutures]

I love this Video!!! Alexander McQeen is my only really Fashion Idol.

[branko17]

wow!!!  he was the best!!!

[Broomehall]

God bless you Lee...........................

[anthonygreek15]

He is a genius...totally remarkable & I can't get enough. Truly lost one of the most influential designers of our time. RIP Alexander McQueen.

[brianlilith]

bjork has the wings @ :54, she wore it while she sung as his memorial service...

[punk19]

the fashion world lost a genius

[LadyGagaIMAXHD]

i wish iwas a girl so i could dress up like this @ the mall hahaha

[powerfulpp]

i liked the video . i will add it to my favorite , thanks for the add

[mezzocorte]

STOP THE HATE AND LOVE THE GARMENTS

[wizotch]

someone should do a proper feature length docu on this guy for serious and set up a design arts fund in this guys name. or at least name a skool after him. fuck do it all. he deserves to be honoured.

[wildberry581]

omgomgomg, her collection is beautiful. : ))

[rejectzombie]

uh @artsydude8900

he is dead...

[artsydude8900]

@rejectzombie yeah, but without the creations from him, Lady Gaga would be some regular pop star.

[chacha197201]

@artsydude8900 Lady gaga was something wayy before she could afford Alexander MCqeen's clothes, she didn't start wearing Alexander MCqueen's clothes tilll the Bad romance video. and she was famous before then. she got famous in 2008. 

[Clariccy]

@chacha197201 Omg, could you leave that generic crap off of here ? thanxx

[chacha197201]

@Clariccy You suck balls. Lol



[Clariccy]

@chacha197201 Anyone who listens to a generic serial plagiarist "sucks balls" .. Lol, you lemming . . . .

uh, "Monster"

[artsydude8900]

@rejectzombie and I already know that too, he died from hanging himself.

[artsydude8900]

@rejectzombie I knew that, replying from months ago

[MANILABOY6631]

IF THERE IS PSEUDO SCIENCE. . THERE THERE IS ALSO PSEUDO FASHION !!!

[jarevermoord18]

genius work.

[artsydude8900]

Without this guy, Lady Gaga is nothing.

[thonyXDifyy]

@artsydude8900 Lady Gaga don't need clothes tobe a SuperStar , stupid

[artsydude8900]

@thonyXDifyy ugh, in the mainstream pop industry where hot fashion and cosmopolitanism is extremely emphasized toward the idiotic masses, ugh....yeah! She would need to be hooked up with the best of the best to keep the dough running otherwise no one is going to look at her and pass her by as just another pop star wanna be. I hate saying that, but that is the reality of music marketing in the 21st century. Not my fault that the market is suggesting towards the shallow.

[thonyXDifyy]

@artsydude8900 Ok Gaga is nothing whitout her Clothes , and we're hes music said "Gaga is nothing whitout Clothes" is stupid

[artsydude8900]

@thonyXDifyy That whole comment was so unintelligible, it makes YOU look really stupid, dude. Go back to elementary school where you should of learned to form sentences.

[thonyXDifyy]

@artsydude8900 No u're the stupid dude here , get a hit by car faggot

[artsydude8900]

@thonyXDifyy How exactly am I stupid if I can spell words correctly, and can ask an intelligent question about fashion and the impact of Lady Gaga's image in the music industry?

[thonyXDifyy]

@artsydude8900 English is not my lenguage , stupid faggot try speak spanish i think u can't

[thonyXDifyy]

@artsydude8900 Lady Gaga is in music indutry like all the artist -____- faggot

[artsydude8900]

of course I can't because I took French, but that's not my point, my point is is that you're attacking me for no realistic reason, and you're not getting my point at all. Plus, how the hell would I know what your first or second language is when I don't even know you? How about actually making a valid argument against mine rather than saying idiotic comments that pertain nowhere near what I am saying about Lady Gaga. This discussion is over...bye.

[thonyXDifyy]

@artsydude8900 Ok Discucion is over and edns like this; Gaga don't need clothes to be famous

[Clariccy]

@thonyXDifyy No, she just needs lemming followers who know nothing about fashion or music .... lol

[thonyXDifyy]

@Clariccy Lemming followers that's you :( , she just have amazing followers Born this way 2.0 millions in 2 weeks you're such a #FAIL. No more comments :(

[Clariccy]

@thonyXDifyy Yeah, her "monsters" do not behave like lemmings at all, do they .... Come On !

[GAXxJUNAIDxXGA]

@artsydude8900 hi yeh im not trying to be rude i know this is your opinion but the thing is when lady gaga was known she went top she hit 1 on 6 countrys she didnt need mcqueens clothes to be famous because now GAGA has become over the top she has become a powerful celeberity she over took oprah so your wrong and i love gaga and mcqueen they r both good friends also gaga admired alexander mcqueen because he made beautiful eccentric garments not only that he created art

[artsydude8900]

@GAXxJUNAIDxXGA Typical answer to those who cannot open themselves to another opinion because of the fear of being different from their own. Even though saying that you weren't trying to be rude, well saying that I am wrong contradicts that. I'm already done with this argument. Why should I fight about it if Gaga's Monster will always claim her as their Jesus of music? Obviously his clothing line put her further on the map of Hollywood because of her exploitation of selling avant-garde fashion.

[GAXxJUNAIDxXGA]

@artsydude8900 no i dont claim her as the jesus of the music i dont belive in christinanity i dont belive in jesus im a muslim i love gaga and think before you write coz you will end up being offensive to people coz of what you will say!

[artsydude8900]

@GAXxJUNAIDxXGA I was metaphorically speaking about her fame because of how much hype her image can generate in a dog whistle type scenario. I don't believe in any God as something real, but to play devil's advocate, it does come off offensive, but offensive to the majority of those who take it too literally. If you couldn't read what I said last time, I was already done with this debate because I'm obviously will not win. One thing, I don't take advice from strangers.

[artsydude8900]

@GAXxJUNAIDxXGA So there I'm done

[Clariccy]

@GAXxJUNAIDxXGA Of course she needs them, what would her music be without all the smoke and mirrors ? Pretty generic carp

[GAXxJUNAIDxXGA]

@Clariccy dont think so you dont need clothes to make you famous you need fans, love, support, and you have to hav passion and she has all of that then she started wearing mcqueen GAGA AND MCQUEEN are very simlar them both are artists they both love fashion they are both good friends and even when mcqueen passed away R.I.P lady gaga still became top she still is she has been turned into a top celebrity and make speople feel good about them self and has been in politcal roles she supports truth.

[Clariccy]

@GAXxJUNAIDxXGA They are not similar, McQueen was an original, Germanotta is not.

Anyway, back to what is relevant here : McQueen !

x x x

[thonyXDifyy]

@Clariccy " McQueen is original Germanotta not " Gaga dresses McQueen and is not original , what a stupid bitch D: .

[GAXxJUNAIDxXGA]

@Clariccy exacly gaga and mcqueen are not the same but that the point they both do diffrent thing and are very famous for the diffrent stuff mcqueen is the king of fashion design and art and gaga is the top singer of music and fashion who has the guts to walk down the road

[CaRaMiDaEdistractiv]

@artsydude8900 Actually,he's dead and Gaga is still the number one on Forbes and everybody loves her... so yeah .

[artsydude8900]

@CaRaMiDaEdistractiv For this year yes, but U2 is still #1 for Highest Paying in the world according to Forbes Top 100. She and McQueen had a fashion show to promote Bad Romance with his clothing line in the music video so they obvious had to meet each other before his death in 2010. Of course everyone loves her because barely anyone wants to listen to music that makes you think. Artistically crafted music will never reach the masses, entertainment will hence her fame. I'm done with this.

[hyrdogin]

@artsydude8900 he's barely designed any of her outifts....

[artsydude8900]

@hyrdogin prove it if that's even true.

[hyrdogin]

@artsydude8900 most of he outfits are made by the haus of gaga..if you look into it at all you would see that

[artsydude8900]

@hyrdogin I see why she said she's like Warhol, but that doesn't really tell me if she physically creates the outfits herself. Haus of Gaga is a team of designers doing that designing for her. You don't know what her decisions on style are. They can be a miniscule as in the mood for a jacket or pants that has spikes. Who knows. People should stop responding to me because I highly doubt that Lady Gaga gives a shit about my opinion.

[phoneylala90]

@artsydude8900

If you mean she's a "business artist" like Warhol, then I definitely agree.

[artsydude8900]

even if she did "design" her outfits, in her Bad Romance videos, ALL of the outfits are from Alexander McQueen. Haus of Gaga (like she can't get any more pretentious) does the performance outfits, not her going out clothes. One thing, she obviously will still make music whether people are making high fashion clothes for her, producing her albums, marketing her image, winning gay supporters, my comment will not stop her and throwing trivia will not make me believe that she's "authentic"

[lovegaga71]

@artsydude8900 so many people know mcq just because of LADY GAGA!!!!!! she is above all.......she is one of a kind.....

[artsydude8900]

@lovegaga71 @Throatxwhores THANK YOU! Hahahaha

[lovegaga71]

@artsydude8900 ?? :P

[artsydude8900]

@lovegaga71 no, I thank you for not saying something remotely vicious to me at all. Gaga fans are vicious :-F especially at a different perspective.

[lovegaga71]

@artsydude8900 u knw what gaga fans hold a lot of dignity in themselves, they hardly get rude because most of her fans are those who have faced the cruelty of this world. either they are the suppressed ones or bullied or deprived or ignored or gay/lesbian n thus highly emotional. so we think twice before being offensive or rude cause we know how does it feel..This is what i have observed but i dont know buddy what made you draw this perception about us. n we love good music too..:P

[artsydude8900]

@lovegaga71 I don't find that true at all. A majority of people from my personal experience in the GLBT community contradict their beliefs on equality. I'm really active in the GLBT community and been to GLBT conferences in PA, NY, and NJ areas, and that's always an issue with which one matters more. As for Lady Gaga fans from my personal experience, it's the arrogance that she change the face of music....in which she really didn't. Just made it more about the business of entertainment than art

[artsydude8900]

@lovegaga71 That's why I hate pop music in general because there's always that arrogance of who's better and bigger instead of who is more innovative or intellectually provoking a question. Sorry, but she does neither of those things. If you look at every single Youtube video of any avant-garde artist (e.g. Bjork's videos) you'll see what I mean.

[lovegaga71]

@artsydude8900 I RESPECT HER BUDDY BECAUSE she makes song with deep meaning, her songs are life saving to many........with the kind of talent she have she can easily make catchy music ti make money but she always try to send a msg thru her songs......for ex BORN THIS WAY can giv u instant confidence n the zeal to live happily 4 wat u are.....she is an amazing soul n amazing talent.

[ka4s]

McQueen's looks are utterly STRIKING

[babyfaceCHECKYA]

That was awesome!

[dkm579]

[Fashion4life]

[givogue22]

[Baphomet417]

Fashion lost it's most truly daring and original AGENT PROVACATEUR and he will be SORELY missed!!!! There will never EVER be another McQueen in this life or any other!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (perhaps the only designer that even comes close to his genius is Galliano!)

[flaca5858]

I'm still so sad every time someone mentions Alexander McQueen. It's just so sad. Look at how beautiful what he did was!
