ALEXANDER MCQUEEN - Blazer d’Archivio Vintage 1996 - Sartoria Italiana - Iconica Fodera Floreale - Blazer - Vintage

ALEXANDER MCQUEEN

A masterpiece of Alexander McQueen archival tailoring.
This single-breasted three-button blazer is a rare piece dating back to the mid-1990s (circa 1996), a period in which Lee Alexander McQueen was consolidating his worldwide fame through impeccable, provocative tailoring.

Design & Materials Details:
- Iconic Cut: Ultra-feminine silhouette with a sculpted waist and structured shoulders, a designer hallmark to emphasize the hourglass figure.
- Exterior Fabric: A precious blend of 54% Linen and 42% Cotton with a sophisticated charcoal gray micro-rib weave. The texture is tactile yet light, ideal for versatile seasonal use.
- Exceptional Lining: The interior reveals the garment’s “secret”: a stunning lining in 60% Acetate and 40% Rayon with a multicolored botanical print. The satin finish reflects light, highlighting the red and blue flowers on a black background.
- Tailoring Details: Deep center back slit and matching original buttons.

Condition of the Garment:
The blazer is presented in excellent condition (Grade A). Signs of wear are minimal or almost non-existent, an exceptional fact for a piece that is about 30 years old. The fabric maintains its structural rigidity and the lining is perfectly intact. The original spare button is still sewn inside.

Pieces produced under the direct direction of Lee Alexander McQueen in the 1990s are today considered true museum pieces. This blazer, with its contrast between the austere exterior and the floral interior, embodies the designer’s “Dualism” philosophy. It is an unmissable opportunity for collectors and luxury vintage enthusiasts.
