An incredibly chic AlexanderMcQueen nude and blush pink off-shoulder boned bustier dress dating back to his groundbreaking 2001 spring/summer collection. This documented body of work, titled “Voss”, is one of the most provocative moments in fashion history. This monumental show was staged in a large two-way mirrored glass box where the audience, seated around the box, could see their reflections but not the models inside until the lights were turned on. McQueen was at his best, exploring themes of madness and confinement. This stylized yet effortless dress, look number 20 on the runway, is a perfect example of why the magic of AlexanderMcQueen is so missed. The fabric is a sensational light-weight nude cotton with blush pink silk lining. I love the off-the-shoulder bodice which features bustier corset construction and underwire support allowing for a peek-a-boo pink moment at the bust. The mid-length skirting, which skims the hips into visible hand tacked side vents, is a testament to McQueen’s impeccable tailoring and eye for celebrating one's silhouette. A rare lifetime McQueen that would be a great addition to an archival lover’s wardrobe.
