Mirroring the savage beauty, maverick originality and vivacity of Alexander “Lee” McQueen’s designs, McQueen is an intimate revelation of this world-renowned designer’s complex personal and professional world. This critically-acclaimed film celebrates McQueen’s radical and mesmerising genius of profound influence. To celebrate the film’s release on Blu-ray 22nd October, we’re giving away 1 Blu-ray copy.

As a self-described “unremarkable” working-class boy from East London, McQueen harnessed his personal demons to create a darkly stunning fashion brand and become one of the most iconic artists of the century. As a punk rebel, McQueen was celebrated for overturning the silver-spoon world of Paris haute couture and ushering in the heady, revolutionary era of ‘Cool Britannia,’ as well as provoking and subverting the fashion industry in ways that often caused controversy and scandal.

Portraying his life from his debut collection through to the tragedy of his premature death, McQueen evokes Lee McQueen’s unique vision, originality and eccentric sense of humour. The transformative impact of his personality and his work is captured in never-before-seen home movies, audio tapes and behind-the-scenes footage shot throughout his career. Stitched together with deeply personal interviews from close family, friends and collaborators, McQueen takes us on a personal journey into the mind of this tortured genius. Audiences can relive the most memorable moments of his startling and iconic fashion shows and witness the private fears, dreams, obsessions, desires and nightmares that fuelled these legendary works. McQueen allows us to explore the complexities of Lee McQueen – the tortured man and the world-renowned artist – to help us to understand the mystery of why, at the height of his acclaim and power, he shockingly made the decision to end it all.
