Few designers have left a legacy as emotionally charged and visually arresting as Alexander McQueen. Known for theatrical runway shows, razor-sharp tailoring, and a bold artistic vision, the brand continues to break boundaries in fashion, craftsmanship, and storytelling.

Now available on Mytheresa, the Alexander McQueen women’s collection blends couture-level construction with contemporary wearability, offering garments and accessories that balance edge, elegance, and empowerment.

The History of Alexander McQueen: A Visionary Legacy

Founded in 1992 by British designer Lee Alexander McQueen, the label quickly became known for its provocative, poetic, and powerful aesthetic. A Central Saint Martins graduate and former head designer at Givenchy, McQueen brought an intensity to fashion that felt both intellectual and visceral.

After McQueen’s passing in 2010, longtime collaborator Sarah Burton took the reins as Creative Director, evolving the brand with a softer, more romantic edge—while retaining its sharp tailoring, dark romanticism, and rebellious spirit.

Today, Alexander McQueen remains a symbol of fearless creativity and masterful construction.
