McQueen’s Last Touch

This dress is believed to be the last dress that Alexander McQueen touched before his death. The elegant white silk charmeuse gown was not featured in his last Spring Paris collection, instead it made for his muse and longtime friend, Annabelle Neilson. Neilson adored his work and frequently wore his daring fashions. She wore this feathered gown to Elton John’s White Tie and Tiara Ball in June.
