McQ’s Military Chic – For fall 2012, Alexander McQueen’s offshoot line McQ looked towards British tradition and military inspired fashion with a collection of strict silhouettes featuring a gothic undertone. Model Meghan Collison dons the autumn designs in a color palette of army green, cream, black and oxblood. From cinched waists to bell-shaped skirts, the season toes the line between masculinity and femininity. Tops offer delicate lace and splashes of color with kaleidoscopic prints. Footwear is equestrian inspired matched with chain detailing. Accessories include bridle harness-inspired bags, tartan totes and leather bags. Overall, fall is a strong outing for McQ by Alexander McQueen with a unique take on youthful danger.
