Sarah Burton took the reins at Alexander McQueen in 2010, following 14 years of collaboration with the pioneering designer. One of her most iconic creations was the wedding dress worn by Kate Middleton, the Princess of Wales, when she married Prince William in 2011.
The front row of the show was graced by a star-studded array of A-list celebrities, including Cate Blanchett, known for her affinity for the brand's creations, Elle Fanning, and fashion icon Anna Wintour. This gathering of luminaries came together to bid an emotional farewell to the esteemed designer.
The show's collection drew inspiration from various sources, including female anatomy, Queen Elizabeth I, the blood-red rose, and Magdalena Abakanowicz, a boundary-pushing and profoundly creative artist who never compromised her vision. In her final bow, Burton dedicated her collection to Lee McQueen, emphasizing his longstanding desire to empower women.
