What is the difference between McQ and McQueen?
1 Answer

The difference between McQ and McQueen comes down to the focus of the brands. McQueen is the shortened form of the brand Alexander McQueen, the high-end collection of clothing and accessories produced by the luxury fashion house founded by British designer Alexander McQueen in 1992. In 2006, Alexander McQueen introduced McQ, a diffusion line that offered pieces at lower points intended for everyday wear. McQ was discontinued in 2022.

Last Collection Alexander McQueen Angels and Demons 2010 Sz 8 Red Gold Dress
By Alexander McQueen
Located in San Diego, CA
A rare and historically significant piece from Alexander McQueen’s final and most hauntingly beautiful collection, “Angels and Demons” (Autumn/Winter 2010). Personally designed by McQueen himself before his passing, this dress embodies his masterful fusion of art, history, and provocation.
Size US 8, and crafted in rich crimson and metallic gold brocade, the design features opulent baroque motifs depicting ornate cherubs, vines, and birds—an intricate tapestry of life and mortality, characteristic of McQueen’s final artistic vision. The sculpted puff sleeves and sharp tailoring accentuate the silhouette, creating a perfect balance between strength and sensuality. Made in Italy
This collector’s piece captures a defining moment in fashion history—McQueen’s last complete expression of his genius. It is both wearable art and museum-worthy couture.
