Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Latest Alexander McQueen Menswear Line References Gothing Styling

— September 22, 2014 — Fashion
The latest Alexander McQueen menswear presentation is the label's showing for Fall 2014. Alexander McQueen designer Sarah Burton first made waves following the reveal of her custom wedding gown for Kate Middleton and hasn't stopped with her signature aesthetic since. Taking a darker route of inspiration, the designer referenced Gothic styling and Soho's modern art scene in her latest presentation for Alexander McQueen.

Though dark and whimsical in its inspiration, this collection featured dapper and structured staples that were surprisingly wearable and versatile when infused into one's existing wardrobe. Its standout elements were its printed textiles and feathered headpiece accessories that added a theatrical element to suits, jackets and classic knits. This Alexader McQueen menswear collection was an homage to the fallen designer and married Sarah Burton's clean aesthetic with the avian details that were signature to McQueen himself.
