Alexander McQueen Archival Skirt

Alexander McQueen Cross-Stitch Intarsia A-Line Skirt - Autumn/Winter 2017

This striking A-line skirt from Alexander McQueen's Autumn/Winter 2017 collection encapsulates the brand's distinctive blend of traditional craftsmanship and modern design. The piece, designed by Sarah Burton, features a flattering wide waistband and falls just above the knee, offering a classic silhouette. The skirt is adorned with intricate cross-stitch intarsia patterns, inspired by the rich landscapes of Cornwall. Vividly colored motifs—ranging from embroidered flora to folkloric symbols—create a bold, textured design that speaks to the mysticism and historical richness of the collection.

Sarah Burton's 2017 collection reflected themes of nature, femininity, and self-determination, merging medieval and pagan imagery with contemporary elements. The collection as a whole was a journey through layered narratives of enchantment and strength, drawing from Cornwall's wild terrain and historical depth. This particular skirt, with its detailed tapestry-like pattern and timeless shape, stands as a perfect representation of that visionary collection. 

This piece is in excellent condition with no stains, damage or pulls.
