Alexander McQueen is facing backlash on social media following the publication of their $6,490 ‘Anemone print dress.’
There are a few different variants of the outfit, but none of them received the same amount of attention as this one.
A few Twitter users have expressed their displeasure with the outfit, claiming it is blood-stained, frightening, and conjures up images of enslavement.
At the age of 40, Lee Alexander McQueen committed suicide in his Mayfair, London residence ten years ago.
His name lives on as he continues to create stunning personalized pieces for the globe to wear, but his most recent release has people looking at it in a new light. The outfit “represents a red anemone bloom,” according to the company’s description.
#Socialites, do you believe people on Twitter are going too far? Is this merely a fashion statement?
