Fashion Culture Online Event: Alexander McQueen: Unseen

April 15, 2021 at 6:00 pm - 7:30 pm

The Dance of the Twisted Bull, Spring 2002
The Dance of the Twisted Bull, Spring 2002

Alexander McQueen’s spectacular shows were full of extraordinary moments and people. Author and photographer Robert Fairer will discuss his stunning, high-energy photographs of McQueen’s runway shows. Fairer, who was Vogue‘s backstage fashion photographer for more than a decade, was an integral part of the whirl of activity behind the scenes. In Alexander McQueen: Unseen, Fairer’s images, which capture both the glamour and the grit, represent a new genre of fashion photography and are a treasure trove of inspiration. Robert Fairer joins writer and consultant John Mathison (of Instagram’s @McQueen_Vault) in a talk moderated by MFIT’s senior curator of education Tanya Melendez-Escalante.
