Curator's Note

From McQueen's SS 1998 collection 'Untitled,' also known as 'Golden Shower.' The black rose and vine embroidery running diagonally across the jacket and mirrored on the skirt is characteristic of McQueen's approach at this period - romantic motifs deployed within rigorous tailoring.

Alexander McQueen

Alexander McQueen was founded in London in 1992 by Lee Alexander McQueen, who brought Savile Row tailoring together with a sustained engagement with history, mortality, the natural world and the relationship between beauty and violence. His runway shows, among them Dante, Deliverance and Plato's Atlantis, are among the most referenced in the history of fashion. The Savage Beauty exhibition, held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in 2011, broke attendance records and confirmed his place in the canon of 20th-century design.
