Alexander McQueen

Alexander McQueen left behind a legacy in the fashion world that will not soon be forgotten. Earning the nickname “L’Enfant Terrible” in the industry for his controversial designs and runway shows, McQueen’s shoes are no less shocking and daring. The pumps, booties, boots, and sandals in this collection all contain touches that make even the most standard style a venture that pushes fashion’s boundaries. For instance, his gold leather flip-flops are adorned with the iconic skull that became one of his most well-known trademarks. His Samurai Cutout platform sandal, with a peep-toe and intricate gold etchings that travel from the platform sole all the way up the teetering stiletto heel, exemplify the intricacy of Alexander McQueen shoes. The Crysized nude d’orsay open-toe pump and black biker bootie do this as well, both covered with countless tiny jewel embellishments.

A penchant for things whimsical and at times fairytale-esque shines through with strappy evening shoes in iridescent colors, pearly nude flats, and leather pumps with zippers that make them resemble an un-done biker jacket. Alexander McQueen shoes are suited for the most elegant ball gowns, as well as the grungy city sidewalks. Ranging from shoes so tall and exotically shaped that they seem to defy nature, to more subtle black platform pumps that still display exquisite amounts of detail in their construction, Alexander McQueen is a brand that truly views fashion as an artform.
