Cropped Zip-Front Stretch-Knit Top

Alexander McQueen’s SS22 collection is as much a love letter to East London grit as it is a celebration of frothy, full-skirted couture dresses and Paris-inflected tailoring. Take this zip-front top, which merges the label’s penchant for drama with punk and rave culture. Both simple and radical at once, its embellishment is stripped down to a gleaming, silver-toned zip which runs all the way down its front. The more you undo it, the more daring its cropped, off-the-shoulder cut becomes.
