DESCRIPTION
Alexander McQueen Floral Jacket with Red Piping and Lace Trims (SS 2005)
Curator’s Note This floral-print jacket was presented on the runway for Alexander McQueen's Spring/Summer 2005 collection, It's Only a Game. The show concluded with 36 models taking their positions on a giant illuminated chessboard, inspired by the chess scene in Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone . McQueen brought together references to Edwardian clothing, particularly the costumes in Peter Weir's 1975 film Picnic at Hanging Rock , with eighteenth-century tailoring and Japanese clothing. Worn on the runway with a pale pink striped puffball skirt, this cropped jacket has curved red satin piping that follows the bust and waist, a floral print and ivory lace trim at the neckline, cuffs and hem. The close-fitting cut and intricate arrangement of the piping reflect McQueen's approach to historical tailoring, which was a prominent element of the collection.
