Created by the fashion house known for its stunning haute couture designs, this Fur Skull Clutch by [Alexander McQueen](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/alexander-mcqueen-6) is a perfect tribute to his original style.

Any McQueen fan will know how interesting and original his work was, and this clutch is no different. It is made out of pure leather and [blue goat fur](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ducies-fw25-collection). The fur adds an eerie texture to the outside of the bag, and the length of it also adds interest and makes the bag look like it is a piece that would have come out of the house of McQueen.The clasp that holds it all together is in the shape of a golden skull, and it is made with [Swarovski](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crystal-swipe) crystals. This Fur Skull Clutch is the perfect gift for the fashion risk-taker.
