After four weeks of back to back shows in New York, London, Milan and now Paris, yesterday's Alexander McQueen show was a true vision and celebration of design. The lack of daywear, or anything wearable for that matter, proved that fashion is as much about image, conception and ideas.
Sarah Burton, creative director at McQueen, took the idea of a pod-shaped dress in white, which opened the show, and crescendo-ed into full cherry blossom gowns and exquisite eveningwear in huge tuffs of multilayered organza and fabric. It was an explosion of ruffles in the lightest way possible. Burton remarked the collection was about positivity, optimism and a beautiful future.
