When was Alexander McQueen’s label founded?

Alexander McQueen epitomises individuality and a refreshing perspective on luxury fashion. After navigating the creative direction of Louis Vuitton and Givenchy, McQueen established his own line in 1992, soon earning a reputation for rebellious looks and opulent, unconventional runways.

Since then, Alexander McQueen handbags have remained a firm favourite with celebrities, influencers, and fashionable individuals around the world.


What are the most popular Alexander McQueen handbags?

With Alexander McQueen bags, expect gothic tones and a punk edge, tempered by chic sophistication — an essential for any modern wardrobe. Over the years, the label has released iconic bag designs that have remained popular. These include:


- Skull Box Clutch: These hard-cased clutch bags may be small but they make a big statement. You can find a variety of designs, showcasing lavish materials and embellishments — the ultimate addition to evening wear. The skull closure (a McQueen trademark) further emphasises the sense of gothic glamour.

    - Knuckle Clutch: As the Skull Box Clutch evolved, the Knuckle Clutch was born. These designs feature striking embellishments and are topped with jewel-encrusted rings, creating a unique ‘knuckle-duster’ silhouette.

    Whether you’re looking for understated elegance in the form of sleek silk designs or want to go for maximalist adornments, there are plenty of styles to explore.

    - Heroine: Described by McQueen as a ‘timeless’ luxury piece, this bag combines the best of satchels and doctor’s bags, showcasing a teardrop profile and short, tote-style handles. Its spacious interior has plenty of compartments, and there are various bag sizes to choose from. Heroine is the ideal bag for those looking to bring edgy sophistication to everyday wear.

      - The Story: This Alexander McQueen crossbody bag can also be worn as a shoulder bag. It has a sleek, rectangular silhouette with interior compartments, making it ideal for everyday use. Large gold hardware on the front adds a quirky edge, and The Story is available in classic black, bold red, and a variety of other timeless shades.

      - The Curve Bag: Futuristic, minimalist, and eye-catching The Curve Bag is Alexander McQueen’s take on the bucket bag. This design has a sculptural shape, is made from buttery-soft calf leather, and can add instant intrigue to any outfit. It’s compact yet roomy enough for all your daily essentials.


        How to tell a real Alexander McQueen bag?

        When exploring both new and pre-loved Alexander McQueen handbags, it’s natural to want to know that your accessory is genuine. Here are a few areas to take a look at so you can have peace of mind:


        - Logo: Like many designer bags, Alexander McQueen handbags feature a clear logo. In genuine bags, this will be engraved or embossed with clear, crisp letters. If the logo looks blurry, has irregular font or has a typo, it could indicate a fake.

        - Stitching: Attention to detail is vital when it comes to creating luxury bags. With real Alexander McQueen bags, you’ll see neat, even stitching, with precise seams and no loose threads.


          - Materials: Real Alexander McQueen bags are made from high-quality materials, including supple leather. If the bag looks overly shiny or has a plastic smell, it may not be genuine.

          - Hardware and zips: Alexander McQueen’s commitment to quality materials extends to each bag’s hardware. Zippers, buckles, and embellishments should be sturdy and weighty, never flimsy.

          - Serial code: Your authentic Alexander McQueen item should come with a unique serial number. Fake bags may not include this or they will add a random or generic number. The best way to ensure your bag’s serial number is genuine is to check it against the fashion house’s official product records.
