The Alexander McQueen S/S 1997 "La Poupee" Plunging V Neck Bias Cut Cocktail Dress, part of the iconic Spring/Summer 1997 “La Poupee” collection, is a striking example of McQueen's innovative design. This black, sleeveless dress features a dramatic plunging v-neckline at the front and back, with a bias cut that enhances its sleek silhouette. Constructed from a blend of 71% acetate and 29% rayon, it includes front-angled bust darts and a left-side seam invisible zipper with a hook and eye closure at the top. This piece epitomizes McQueen's ability to merge provocative aesthetics with meticulous tailoring, a hallmark of his early career. The "La Poupee" collection, inspired by surrealist Hans Bellmer's doll-like sculptures, explores themes of control and liberation, reflecting McQueen's fascination with the human form and its possibilities. Made in Italy, this dress is a testament to McQueen's legacy of pushing the boundaries of fashion design.
