Kaia Gerber Launches Alexander McQueen's Newest Design
Introducing The Slash Bag.
Alexander McQueen just announced its newest silhouette, paying tribute to the brand’s signature McQueen knuckle hardware.
Dubbed ‘The Slash Bag,’ the new offering emphasizes the now-iconic knuckle design alongside the House’s classic skull motif, drawing inspiration from knuckledusters and the gritty streets of London. Enveloped in antique silver and gold metal, the bag’s embellishment represents a sense of urban toughness juxtaposed with the beauty of jewelry.
Made up of a supple red lambskin leather body, the bag features cut-out details inspired by the art of tailoring and boasts a press stud closure. Complete with an antique silver-finished chain strap, the bag’s handle is designed with Swarovski-encrusted rings.
To celebrate the launch of the bag, Alexander McQueen tapped model Kaia Gerber for an all-new film that blurs the lines between humanity and technology. Directed by Glen Luchford, the campaign offers an eerie look at a futuristic universe, one where Gerber comes face to face with a harsh reality.
