The Hunger (collection)
1996 fashion collection by Alexander McQueen
- The Hunger is the seventh collection by British designer Alexander McQueen, released for the Spring/Summer 1996 season of his eponymous fashion house.
- The collection was primarily inspired by The Hunger, a 1983 erotic horror film about vampires.
- McQueen had limited financial backing, so the collection was created on a minimal budget.
- Typically for McQueen in the early stages of his career, the collection centred around sharply tailored garments and emphasised female sexuality.
- It was his first collection to include menswear.
