| Alexander McQueen is known for both the emotional power and raw energy of the shows as well as the romantic but determinedly contemporary nature of the collections. Integral to the McQueen culture is the juxtaposition between contrasting elements: fragility and strength, tradition and modernity and fluidity and severity. An openly emotional and even passionate viewpoint is realised with a profound respect and influence for the arts and crafts tradition. Alexander's collections combine an in-depth working knowledge of: bespoke British tailoring, the fine workmanship of the French Haute Couture atelier and the impeccable finish of Italian manufacturing.

Luxe-minimalism. Impeccably tailored suits, and knits in an array of experimental cuts and techno fabrics. After leaving her own house in 2000 (to take up gardening!), Sander made a vaunted return in spring 2003, cranking out four highly praised collections. However, a year and a half later, she terminated her contract with then-owners the Prada Group, which hired Belgian menswear designer Raf Simons as creative director in 2005. Known for his futuristic suits and military-inspired knits, Simons debuted his first women’s collection for the label—a slightly tweaked set of Sander faves—during the spring 2007 shows in Milan.Info: 30 Howard Street, New York Tel. 1 212 925 2345 Jil Sander Web Site Source: nymag.com Photo: Jil Sander
