From one of Alexander McQueen’s most iconic early ready-to-wear collections, these SS1999 jeans are a true collectible. Crafted in a structured mid-wash denim, they feature exquisite, vivid embroidery of birds and botanicals cascading down one leg, showcasing McQueen’s fascination with nature and precision detailing. The jeans are mid-rise with straight legs, welt side pockets, a zip fly, and striking back hem splits that expose the ankle and calf while walking—adding unexpected movement and sensuality to a utilitarian base.
Designer Background: The Spring/Summer 1999 collection was a breakthrough for McQueen, establishing his identity beyond shock theatrics into poetic, technical mastery. Pieces like these jeans illustrate his unique ability to turn a wardrobe staple into a work of art.
