RUNWAY: Alexander McQueen SS13
Since the death of
Alexander McQueen, the house that bears his name has opted to show their menswear collection in a quiet and subdued presentation during
Milan Fashion Week. We're unsure why because the brand has even bigger name recognition and fame now. The house's Creative Director,
Sarah Burton, manages to meld the house's sartorial, Savile Row heritage with a modern take on the McQueen man, utilizing a bold color colors and the couture-level finishes we see Burton using in the house's signature women's line; still present are some of the McQueen staples like wild and interesting prints.
