Damien Hirst and Alexander McQueen Unite

Anyone who knows me, knows that I love my skulls…not to mention that I’m a huge fan of Alexander McQueen and Damien Hirst’s work. Needless to say, hearing about their collaboration on a collection of über-fabulous scarves, made my day!

By Hend Seif El Din


McQueen announced that his collaboration with Hirst is in celebration of the 10th year anniversary of the iconic skull scarf, thus giving birth to this exclusive collection.The Alexander McQueen skull scarf was first seen in the SS03 Irere collection and since it launching has become a signature accessory of the house.

The Damien Hirst and Alexander McQueen scarf collection consists of 30 one-off designs.  Each is adapted from Hirst’s Entomology series – butterflies, bugs, spiders and other insects have been worked to form kaleidoscopic geometric shapes, laid out to create the signature McQueen skull motif. 

The collaboration seamlessly plays on the shared aesthetic vision of Hirst and McQueen, in which an interest in symmetrical design is combined with strong references to the natural world.

The scarves are available in Chiffon, Pongé, Twill and Cashmere with prices ranging from £315/ €340/ $515 to £715/ €785/ $1175.
All 30 designs are limited and are now available at Alexander McQueen stores worldwide and from the scarf boutique of www.alexandermcqueen.com.
