McQ is a diffusion line of Alexander McQueen, founded by Lee Alexander McQueen, aimed at younger consumers. It debuted in 2006, offering men’s and women’s ready-to-wear and accessories at more accessible price points. In 2010, Pina Ferlisi became creative director, and production and distribution were brought in-house. As of June 2022, it was reported as “suspended,” with commercial activities halted for the time being.

McQ Alexander McQueen was developed from a licensing agreement established in 2005 and became a second line fully overseen by Alexander McQueen in 2010. Separate from the main collection, it was developed as a complementary line for the contemporary lifestyle sphere, creating an alternative entry point for younger customers. Its operating approach placed an emphasis on collaborations, and it played a significant role in translating elements of the brand into everyday offerings. Commercial activities ceased in 2022, so it is now regarded as a historical diffusion line.
