Gods and Kings: The Rise and Fall of Alexander McQueen and John Galliano Dana Thomas .[1]
Synopsis [ edit ]
Gods and Kings: The Rise and Fall of Alexander McQueen and John Galliano is a double biography on the lives of two heralded British fashion designers, Alexander McQueen and John Galliano .
Reception [ edit ]
Critical reception for Gods and Kings has been positive.[2] [3] New York Times Captain Hook and Peter Pan ."[4] , The Guardian heavily criticized the book for offering an uneven portrayal of McQueen and Galliano, stating that "to read her brass-tacks account, you’d get the impression that Galliano’s career has been fail after fail. She implicates the “gushing” fashion press in praising his work – we’re an easy bunch to disparage – yet she seems more or less blind to the meaning and emotion others may have felt at Galliano’s or McQueen’s shows."[5]
