McQ: Alexander McQueen For Target
Posted on: November 19, 2008By TheFreshFiends
Awhile back, it was confirmed that Alexander McQueen would be first in line for Target’s new Designer Collaborations project.


And of course, behind every great man’s vision, lies some female influence. According to WWD: Participating designers in the Target program will draw inspiration from a muse, creative element or collaborative partner. McQueen chose as his muse Liela Moss, the lead singer of The Duke Spirit. Moss’ style gave the clothes their rock ’n’ roll–punk vibe and hip Brit accents “I was looking for someone with the uttermost feeling of McQ,” said McQueen. “We use icons in British music, and she stood out. She’s a great-looking girl and has a personal style. It fell into the idea of the New York underground music scene. It was more the atmosphere she portrays.”
McQueen’s collection for Target’s new Designer Collaborations will launch in March.
