Fashion followers across America have been waiting for the much-touted McQ collection to hit Target stores on Wednesday.

The exclusive McQ Alexander McQueen for Target collection draws inspiration from the British rock band The Duke Spirit. The collection is part of the Target Designer Collaborations, a program that features well-established designers who draw inspiration from a collaborative partner, muse or creative element. This is a different partnership than Target’s Go International initiative.

McQueen is one of the most respected designers in the world. He was chief designer at Givenchy from 1997 to 2001, and has created women’s and men’s ready to wear, accessories, eyewear and fragrance collections for the Alexander McQueen label, as well as establishing secondary line McQ Alexander McQueen in 2007. He has been named British Designer of the Year four times and was named International Designer of the Year by the Council of Fashion Designers of America in 2003.

The collection for Target is a contemporary collection with a rock ‘n’ roll twist in muted shades of black, whtie, grays and tan with accents of cobalt blue and pink. Studs and mesh accent wardrobe staples. The essence of The Duke Spirit is captured in the iconic Liela silk screen T-shirt with necklace collar.

Prices range from $19.99 to $129.99. The collection will be at Target through April 14.
