Traveling is always fun, but for fans of British fashion brand Alexander McQueen, it just got even better. The label has just revealed that it is launching two exclusive suitcases together with Globe-Trotter.

The suitcases will be sold in Alexander McQueen's London, Paris, Hong Kong, Singapore, China and USA stores, along with Lane Crawford Hong Kong, as well as in Globe-Trotter's London store. They measure 13" and 21" and feature McQueen's signature silver studs and and riveting as all-over decoration. The utility case has a cross-body shoulder strap, while the suitcase features an all-round black leather strap for added security.

In true McQueen style, the cases are fastened with a skull padlock and bridge, and they're lined with Alexander McQueen's signature ivory and black skull print. Globe-Trotter stated: "With a mutual respect for artisanal techniques, Globe-Trotter and Alexander McQueen share a common value of craftsmanship and this collaboration unites two brands that are synonymous with great British design."

Alexander McQueen recently appointed YSL's Emmanuel Gintzburger its new CEO, after Jonathan Akeroyd left after 12 years.
