Simple Savoir-Faire

I don’t put such an importance on clothes, anyway. I mean at the end of the day, they are, after all, just clothes and I can’t cure the world of illness with clothes. I just try to make the person that’s wearing them more confident in themselves because I am so unconfident. I’m really insecure in a lot of ways and I suppose my confidence comes out in my clothes.
— Alexander McQueen when asked by David Bowie if he thought clothes were a way of torturing society
