Quotable: Alexander McQueen was inspired by Joey Tribbiani?

During an interview with Chinese luxury megastore Lane Crawford, Sarah Burton reminisces about Alexander McQueen‘s quirky inspirations:

“I remember him saying to me, ‘I watched Friends last night, did you see the shirt that Joey was wearing? But then, he would get a Van Eyck book out, so it was this kind of mad mix. There’s no snobbery to it. He had this way of making you look at everything for inspiration so you didn’t just go, ‘Ok, we’re doing Seventies’.”
