Alexander McQueen is renowned for its unbridled creativity and the brand today has become synonymous with modern British couture.

Her ability to marry the design codes of the house with lightness and her own feminine touch has brought a new and personal aesthetic.   Part of the Kering portfolio of brands, Alexander McQueen has expanded internationally through both wholesale and retail channels in the past few years, strengthening its positioning within the luxury sector. With a total network of over 60 directly-operated Alexander McQueen stores and a strong presence in the world’s most prestigious department stores, the brand’s iconic status continues to grow across the world.
