‘To Lee, With Love, Nick’



Premiered at the British Fashion Awards on Tuesday, this captivating tribute film for Alexander McQueen, ‘To Lee, With Love, Nick’, was styled by Edward Enninful and features trenchant vocals from Björk.

Prominent director and photographer Nick Night’s stirring production majestically captures McQueen's inexplicable aesthetic and unparalleled talent.

Icelandic singer Bjork exclusively wrote the acute soundtrack for Night’s 3-minute kaleidoscopic vision of McQueen’s designs. 

The stunning homage stars some of his iconic creations, culminating in a tumultuous finale that epitomises the maverick's cutting edge imagination.

The much celebrated and missed London-born fashion designer was crowned British Designer of the year a stellar four times. 

His notable fashion repertoire stretched to working with numerous esteemed musicians, having designed Bjork's 1997 album cover ‘Homogenic’, as well as the Union Jack coat donned by David Bowie on the ‘Earthling’ cover.
