Alexander McQueen

So far, so beautiful.  Although I haven't managed to have a look at the entire collection there are a number of images circling the internet.  Despite the collections' lack of direction in terms of trends and while it is not representative of Sarah Burton as a designer, it feels like the cliff notes of Alexander McQueen over the last few years.  And that is in no way an insult.  The shapes, textures, colours and some patterns are so McQueen from his past collections, it's a beautiful way to not only celebrate McQueen but take us forward into the future with a designer who has clearly grasped his aesthetic and wishes to continue in his vein.  Stunning.

What do you think?  Has Sarah Burton done us proud?
