The lenticular artwork is comprised of two separate images: a personal portrait of Alexander McQueen, taken by Gary (2008) in the McQueen studio, and a golden skull artwork.

Photo-manipulated images of Tower Bridge encapsulate the very heart of London within the DNA of the artwork, allowing for a highly graphic presentation of the late Alexander McQueen framed within this striking visual narrative. The skull symbol has become synonymous with the Alexander McQueen name making "Savage Beauty" a highly desirable and iconic piece of McQueen imagery.
