"Seán McGirr's 90s Spikiness Takes Center Stage at Alexander McQueen Fall 2024 Ready-to-Wear Show"
Originally Published 1 year ago — by WWD
Sean McGirr's debut at Alexander McQueen for the Fall 2024 Ready-to-Wear collection showcased a cinematic atmosphere with an uneven character study of London's East End, drawing inspiration from rough glamour and twisted opulence. The collection featured nonchalant tailoring, streetwear-oriented pieces, and a more brutal approach to handcraft and embroidery, but fell short of fully connecting to McQueen's storytelling and Savile Row tradition. McGirr's departure from nostalgia may lead to a creative spark, leaving anticipation for future collections.
