Alexander McQueen, 2009
Alexander McQueen (Lee Alexander McQueen, 1969–2010) was a fashion designer.

McQueen was born in Lewisham[1] and went to school in Stratford, London.[2]

He was listed in the Pink List 2000. The citation said:

"If it were not for fellow Brits John Galliano and Stella McCartney, McQueen would be without peer in the rarefied world of haute couture. The London-born designer's shows in London and Paris are packed with ideas and conceived as pure theatre."[3]
