ALEXANDER MCQUEEN was in San Francisco this week to receive an honorary doctorate degree from the Academy of Art University. As well as catching up with his fellow Central Saint Martins grad Simon Ungless, who is the director of graduate fashion at the university, McQueen made it clear that he doesn't approve of the trend of grooming fashion designers out of celebrity. "Something isn't quite right there, because fashion just becomes a commodity," he said. "It doesn't come down to the concept of good design. It comes down to the concept of bad taste and how good looking the designer is. That is a very Americanised ideal."
