Unveiled in January 2007 at Pitti, a menswear trade show in Florence, Alexander McQueen is the newest designer to collaborate with [Samsonite](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/samsonite-x-boss) Black Label.

The impressive luggage set has a modern futuristic look. The buzz has created quite a stir with the weekend wheelie designed to look like a human rib cage. Leave it to McQueen to design a sick and twisted luggage line. Artsy, unusual and a bit creepy. If you are not so keen on transporting the rib cage design, additional textures like [molded leather crocodile prints](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bottega-veneta-6) might do it for you.

For more information contact Samsonite Black Label. As of yet, no sign of the luggage on their site.
