The Skull Scarf - Alexander McQueen - Plus Target Rumours...




I love Alexander McQueen skull scarves - they have been around for a few seasons now and are still selling like hotcakes. It seems the "rock chic" look is still definitely in.

Now one of his signature styles, the skull scarf has become a key staple piece in any fashionista's wardrobe.

I've heard Alexander Mcqueen is to design a line of clothing for Target - a cheaper priced line, but just as fashionable. If this is true, then this will be great news! I loved Temperley's Target range, which featured her trademark bold black and white combinations. Luella also created a funky range for Target, featuring skulls, cherries and other quirky designs that Luella is famed for.





If Alexander McQueen for Target's range goes ahead, i am curious to know what it may turn it out like. Although famed for his skulls, i am unsure as to whether this will be a common feature in his Target range. Skulls in his range have become synonymous with high price and luxury, so i can't imagine the Target range featuring any skulls in the same league has his main collection. Maybe tiny skull accents would be good, like a small skulls at the bottom of a t-shirt. I've done a little mock-up below of how i think this would look good.

You see, McQueen can flaunt the skulls all he wants to in his mainline collections, but i think he will stick with relatively plain designs for his Target collection, but still letting his fans know it's him by featuring a small skull accent. However, McQueen may decide not to use the skull at all...it will be interesting to find out! Let's hope the Alexander Mcqueen Target range will be arriving soon- and be available all over the world!
