The House

History

Alexander McQueen is a British luxury brand founded in 1992 by Lee Alexander McQueen. Rooted in the designer's training on Savile Row, the House pushes the boundaries of British tailoring traditions, emphasizing cut, proportion and silhouette. Over the years, the House became renowned for its theatrical and innovative approach, with shows that were emotionally impactful and often provocative, creating a sense of spectacle. In 2011, "Savage Beauty", the brand’s retrospective at the Met in New York, was a major success, attracting over 650,000 visitors. Today, the House of Alexander McQueen continues its legacy of uncompromising creativity and precise tailoring.  

Creative vision

In 2010, following Lee Alexander McQueen’s passing, Sarah Burton was named Creative Director, having worked alongside the designer for over 14 years. In 2024, Alexander McQueen embarked on a new creative chapter, marked by the arrival of Seán McGirr as Creative Director. His silhouettes evoke the House’s heritage through a modern streetwise lens, reinforcing its distinctive British identity defined by subversive strength and uncompromising self-expression.
