Hirst and McQueen Put Their Skulls Together Nov 13th 2013, 08:00, by Katharine K. Zarrella On November 15, Alexander McQueen will unveil a thirty-piece limited-edition collaboration with the artist Damien Hirst. The subject of the project? The brand’s most recognizable asset: the skull-scarf. The linkage between the house and Hirst celebrates the accessory's ten-year anniversary–it first appeared on McQueen's Spring '03 runway. Blending the house’s signature cranium with Hirst's Entomology series (think: Morpho butterflies, lunar moths, and scarabs), the results are kaleidoscopic in aesthetic yet elegant in tone. And the wares will look just as smart around the neck as they might behind framed glass. To accompany the launch, Sølve Sundsbø shot a short-film that combines models draped in the silk scarves, gritty aesthetics, and harrowing piano to romantic effect. Catch the film's debut below, exclusively on Style.com. Starting at $515, the Alexander McQueen x Damien Hirst scarves will be available at Alexander McQueen stores worldwide and at www.alexandermcqueen.com. —Nick Remsen Photos: Courtesy of Alexander McQueen
