Alexander McQueen was founded in 1992 by British designer Alexander McQueen. He started his career in Savile Row tailoring before launching his own label in London.

The brand became famous for dramatic runway shows, avant-garde designs, and meticulous tailoring. After McQueen’s passing in 2010, the label continued under new creative directors, maintaining its reputation for innovation and showing collections at Paris Fashion Week as a leading British luxury fashion house.
