A Magical World in the Alexander McQueen Spring/Summer 2017
The campaign was created in cooperation with photographer Jamie Hawkesworth, with the stunning Vittoria Ceretti modelling.
Beautiful long dresses of wool and lace are the core element of the delightful collection. The luxury articles are featured in black, beige and red, and the loose cuts make the wearers look like muses from another world.
Inspired by the rough and magical nature of Scotland
Fashion designer and creative director of the Alexander McQueen brand, Sarah Burton, drew the energy and inspiration to create this unique and remarkable collection in the Shetland Islands of Scotland. The wilderness and stunning landscapes are reflected in the pieces with a luxurious, romantic, slightly provocative and hippie style. The wild plant-shaped embroidery combined with transparent materials looks light, timeless and magical.
In addition to airy dresses, the collection features a tartan pantsuit, skirts, trousers, short jackets and lace tops.
