To engage artists of all sorts, Alexander McQueen has launched an open-ended social media initiative to revive some of the luxury fashion collections through their art.

Titled “Creators”, the initiative is focusing on McQueen’s Fall/Winter 2020 men’s and Spring/Summer 2020 womenswear collections, and artists are invited to use any object or material to interpret the looks.

Watch artist and professor at Central Saint Martins Howard Tangye kick this week’s challenge off, and if you’d like to participate too, submit your work to @AlexanderMcQueen on Instagram by tagging #McQueenCreators.

McQueen Creators This week we invite you to draw the silhouettes of the SS20 womenswear and AW20 menswear collection with us. Find your sketchbook and chosen materials – charcoal, pencil, pastels or paints of any kind. Sketch, illustrate or paint your favourite picture from the upcoming series of images. Share your final piece on Instagram by tagging @AlexanderMcQueen #McQueenCreators. Share your creations with us by Tuesday 28th April to be featured on our channel. Tomorrow, we will release the next #McQueenCreators film, drawing silhouettes with @HowardTangyeStudio. Howard is a figurative abstract artist based in London, who is best known for his portraits created in an array of mediums. He is highly renowned for his influence in the fashion industry too after being Head of BA Womenswear at Central Saint Martins for seventeen years, artistically inspiring some of the leading names in fashion. #StayAtHome
