Alexander McQueen is a British luxury house founded by Lee Alexander McQueen in London in 1992.

From its inception, Alexander McQueen has been defined by its expression of individuality and subversive strength. Rooted in Lee Alexander McQueen's training on Savile Row, the house pushes the boundaries of British tailoring traditions, emphasising cut, proportion and silhouette. Inspiration is often drawn from nature, British heritage and contemporary culture, with distinct narrative woven throughout the house's collections and fashion shows. McQueen became renowned for a theatrical and innovative approach, with shows that were emotionally impactful and often provocative, creating a sense of spectacle.

Today, with a design studio and atelier based in London, the house upholds its foundational values, known for its uncompromising creative vision and incisive tailoring.
