Movrin's creations were worn by Lady Gaga, Beyonce and Björk, and his costumes could be seen in the movie Hunger Games. Apparently he made another big step forward: the Alexander McQueen fashion house, named after the established British fashion designer who at first worked for Givenchy, and later founded his own label. He won the British Designer of the Year award four times, and in 2003 he was awarded the International Designer of the year award. He died in 2010, only fourty years old.

Presently the creative brand manager is Sarah Burton, the creator of the famous wedding dress worn by Kate Middleton her wedding to Prince William in 2011.
