Dichotomies – between the savage and romantic, traditional tailoring and innovative flourishes – are at the heart of
Alexander McQueen, both the label and its legendary founder. Successor Sarah Burton plays on these opposites by crafting a collection of hybrids for Pre-Fall '21, starting with this voluptuous dress. Leaving softer fabrics in favour of sleek shell, the Creative Director shapes it with sculptural ruched sleeves and a dramatically cinched waistline.
