McQueen’s Bold Return at London Fashion Week: Highlights from the Spring/Summer 2027 Showcase
After a 25-year absence, McQueen returned to London Fashion Week, which became a hotspot for cool-girl style with appearances from the likes of Lila Moss, Georgia May Jagger, Emilia Clarke, and Florence Welch. The event, showcasing the “Savile Row-meets-rave” collection, featured Alexa Chung in a striking outfit consisting of a cropped McQueen corset and tailored trousers.
Chung’s look featured a taupe bone-in corset with a lace-up neck and cap sleeves, reminiscent of lingerie styles. Instead of opting for the runway’s utilitarian Bermuda shorts, she completed her ensemble with sleek black trousers and pointy pumps, transitioning her outfit seamlessly from work to evening wear.
Seán McGirr, the creative director, emphasized a playful approach to fashion, celebrating Londoners who mix styles in unexpected ways, as showcased by models pairing tailored suits with statement headpieces and bridal lace with modern accessories.
The runway and front-row energy suggest a vibrant, fresh take on traditional fashion. If you’re inspired by the blend of elegance and rebellion seen in the collection, check out our curated selection of corsets and trousers below!
