Sarah Burton Keeps McQueen's Collection Alive

From the late legacy of Alexander McQueen came Sarah Burton to help his ultimate brand live on forever, and she has done exactly that. In Sarah’s new pre-fall line for Alexander McQueen, she took hues of black, red, green, purple, and classic white and black to drawn inspiration for this wearable line.

Flipping through the lookbook of this year's stunning pieces, it was hard to find a favorite; they are all exquisite in their own way. Burton has come up with high-necked, full-sleeved Victorian confections in black mousseline that she says has brought in the spirit of Charles Frederick Worth (fashion’s first couturier).

One thing that most critics and fans alike are buzzing about is that this line is a great example of the museum-worthy pieces that contain the legend of the late McQueen.The strapless, flared cocktail dress in pleated smocked velvet is in shades of green so dark they seem to drain the light straight from the runway. Another favorite is the caped black emerald dress veiled in lace that had different angles of beauty.

Burton kept some pieces on the simpler side, like cropped pants with white poplin shirts, peasants blouses, and jackets inspirited by menswear. Sarah Burton has explained that she will always want to keep the McQueen drama, but with a new fresh outlook on the pieces. This line was remarkably genius, keeping everyone at the runway show on their toes.
