Crystal-Embellished Notch-Lapel Crepe Blazer

Selfridges Says: While it may not be Alexander McQueen’s spine-tingling spiders or slithering snakes uncoiling across the seams of this blazer, this spectral style is no less spellbinding. Evoking its founder’s affinity for the beautifully strange and outlandishly surreal, the label sculpts this piece with razor-sharp and powerful padded shoulders. Then, for a final flicker of magic, it’s patterned in a scintillating spectacle of beads tracing the neckline, rivalling the light-splintering shimmer of chandeliers.

• 52% viscose, 48% acetate; lining 100% cupro
• Ref: R04277184
