Before that, he worked as a Women’s Designer for Dries Van Noten in Antwerp. He also spent four years at Uniqlo’s creative hubs in Tokyo and Paris, where he contributed to the men’s collections under the guidance of Christophe Lemaire. His career kicked off with roles at Burberry and Vogue Hommes Japan.
A native of Dublin, Ireland, McGirr is a Central Saint Martins graduate, earning his Master of Arts in Fashion in 2014.
Gianfilippo Testa, CEO of Alexander McQueen, expressed his enthusiasm, stating, “We are delighted to welcome Seán McGirr as Creative Director.
