I have to admit that if someone came to me and said, "you are going to carry on for Alexander McQueen" I would first start to laugh, then start to cry and eventually faint. But, Sarah Burton did no such thing. She channeled her long time colleague and delivered almost 40 looks that were decidedly McQueen. It was as if she stepped into his body and asked him exactly what he had in mind for the season.
I have always thought that his designs were brilliant, though not my style. I have never felt that I could pull off the 'costume' look of many of the pieces in a McQueen collection. So I guess I must say that while I am definitely into very chic fashion and that I love an edgy look, I am definitely not yet confident enough to pull of Haute Couture.
So for those who were worried that the passing of Alexander McQueen would be the end of the label, not so. Ms. Burton is fully in charge and fully capable of bringing us everything we ever wanted to see from this design house. The House of Alexander McQueen will continue to produce stunning men's and women's collections and even the label McQ, under the watchful eye of Ms. Burton will thrive.
We are spending the weekend going over our notes so we can begin the compare and contrast next week. We anticipate approximately 8 posts that will surly give you a reason to think.
a la prochaine
