Lets relive his great career so far with some of the best catwalk looks from the brand from recent months. One Woman Army This is just a great look from the brand. The biker styled leather look is very in this season as well as the shearling lining underneath &#8211; not to mention military. Multiple eyelet detail as well as these accompanying high heeled boots really add a touch of punk to the outfit. [separator type=&#8221;space&#8221;] Embroidered &amp; Elegant Embroidery is a massive trend this summer season and McQueen&#8217;s designs are no exception. The heavy floral stitching on this fine nude coloured fabric is a perfect transition into A\/W17. The slightly puffed sleeves adds an 80&#8217;s vintage feel to the proceedings.
