Brand-Print Leather Mini Cross-Body Bag

The late Alexander McQueen trained as an apprentice on London's Savile Row, so there are always plenty of pattern-cutting inspired pieces in his collections – even under the creative direction of Sarah Burton. This brand-embroidered leather cross-body bag is one such example; shaped to a compact silhouette, the croc-embossed carrier is fitted with a handy adjustable strap so you can enjoy the ease of handsfree when exploring the capital. Next stop? Mayfair.

Headed by Sarah Burton, Alexander McQueen continues to reinvent modern femininity with pieces that combine technical expertise with contemporary relevance. From statement dresses, shoes, boots and bags to luxury loungewear and outerwear, classic silhouettes are reimagined with asymmetric cuts and opulent embellishment.
