\u2018Tis the season for creative director departures. Just about an hour after the news of Veronica Leoni\u2019s exit<\/a> from Calvin Klein Collection broke, Alexander McQueen shared that Se\u00e1n McGirr will be stepping down from his role at the fashion brand.<\/p>\n

\u201cI would like to thank Se\u00e1n for this contribution and dedication to Alexander McQueen,\u201d Luca de Meo, CEO of Kering, said in a statement shared with The Zoe Report. \u201cOur ambition is to establish a bold new direction for the House, building on its unique heritage of exceptional tailoring, uncompromising creativity and rebellion to reaffirm its position as one of the most innovative and culturally relevant voices in luxury.\u201d<\/p>\n

The news comes as a surprise to many fashion fans, particularly following McGirr\u2019s headline-making Spring 2027 show<\/a> and collection presented last month, marking the brand\u2019s return to London Fashion Week after several years on the Paris Fashion Week schedule. \u201cThe brand is rooted [in London], and this is where I feel at home,\u201d McGirr wrote in his show notes at the time. Of course, the McQueen brand has a cult following thanks to its beloved founder and original visionary, Lee Alexander McQueen, and his avant-garde, explorative designs that inspired a generation of creatives \u2014 including McGirr. For Spring 2027<\/a>, the 38-year-old embraced the oddities associated with the label\u2019s early days, showing high-neck lace bra tops, chainmail gowns comprising sparkling skulls (an homage to the brand\u2019s signature motif), leather harness-and-choker pieces, and feather-adorned panniers attached to latex strapless gowns.<\/p>\n

Overall, the show received acclaim from both devout followers of the McQueen house, fashion editors, and critics alike.<\/p>\n
