The Alexander McQueen Autumn/Winter 2013 collection displays a series of upscale robes. The brand has at the same time displayed its passion for avant-garde menswear as it presented the line at the London Collections: Men event by way of sheer masks.
Alongside these Halloween-appropriate face masks were long, dripping over coats. What distinguished these drooping apparel pieces from the rest were the intense pops of color that were frequently presented along the fronts of the clothing. Reds and mauves were splashed across lapels and buttons, making use of a modern quality that is well suited to the Autumn/Winter 2013 season. Of course, this genre of robes is not to be worn at home as Alexander McQueen uses luxury fabrics only.
