WATCH: Alexander McQueen spring-summer 2023 is luxuriously kinky
Sarah Burton whipped out leather and crystal-encrusted harnesses for her latest presentation
It’s not an Alexander McQueen collection without a twist for excitement. For the latest collection, Sarah Burton kept the silhouettes clean and crisp but she made sure the details gave the audience (and wearers) utmost delight.
This season, the designer’s inspirations were up in the sky: dusty rose and blues for the day and blacks for the night. The collection may not have shown a lot of skin but elements in the collection made sure to play a lot in the imagination.
A number of cinched pieces were given harnesses, in leather or detailed with sparkles, while some knits were accentuated with geometric cut-outs contrasting the soft form of the silhouette. Some structured suits materialized in detail with sequins giving the illusion of astral bodies in the night sky while accessories were kept low-key in black, white, and silver.
