Alexander McQueen, how do I love thee? Let me count the ways: 1. The ubiquitous skull scarf 2. The affordable collaboration with Target 3. Pret-a-porter that would make most runways blush.
If you are looking to attract a lot of attention at your next black tie event, then look no further. This purple, floor length column dress by Alexander McQueen is a real showstopper. The sleek drape of the fabric and slight sweep of the skirt are simply divine, and the puff cap sleeves have enough volume to balance out your hips and maximize the flattering effect of the gown. The neckline is soft and feminine, almost demure, which perfectly complements the distractingly sexy back.
The combination of this deep plunge back, the french bustle, and the cascading swaths of silk is absolutely breathtaking. In a gown like this, you’ll make every carpet a red carpet. Available for $3,635 from Net-A-Porter.
