Alexander McQueen was a passionate and creative type, his passage through the world left us an indelible mark because his essence endures in his signature not only in his name but also that creativity between spectacularity and irreverence.
It has been almost eight years since Alexander McQueen decided to leave this world and since then, Sarah Burton has shown that she has enough talent not to allow the memory of the brilliant McQueen to overshadow her, but at the same time she has successfully absorbed its essence and endowed it with a much more subtle and feminine perspective. For the Spring – Été 2018 collection by Alexander McQueen, Burton, has recreated an english garden with beautiful trellis arches full of flowers, that seem to bloom proudly, with twisted pinkish silks and taffetas that sprout from the seams in flowered tones of peony, pink and poppy, through which, their models glide subtly shaking their feminine garments; with his hair soaked; and their faces wet, as if they had just dealt with a downpour. The general effect evoked a dejected nature after the storm.
Her designs are characterized by the use of unusual materials and the care in the development of each of the garments. As she herself states, “the creation of modern hand-made garments was Lee’s heart and I intend to be faithful to this heritage.” The designer was able to provide her clothes with a seductive elegance, highlighting the low-cut shoulders, d'autre part, we saw leather dresses or the classic Scottish tartan of McQueen, always with punk air. In what may be Burton’s romantic, decorative, ethereal and even sweet collection.
There are no few, the designers who render this warm season to the flyers but Alexander McQueen always does it in a big way. In addition to the ruffles and asymmetries, with their consequent volume games, the color palette calls us, the spring and summer of Alexander McQueen arrive with an imposing passionate air that is represented in a good number of red dresses, Black also has a lot to say in this season.
The Alexander McQueen firm often brings us daring collections with a certain grunge touch, this time, Sarah Burton recreates an English garden with a punk rock tendency for the Alexander McQueen Printemps – Été 2018 collection. Reconstructed trench coats, torn dresses, ruffles, lace, voluminous skirts and a lot of floral prints and red roses for a romantic and at the same time theatrical collection symbolized in the biker boots or Gothic hairstyles, which the English designer also dominated and which his successor tries to recover in each parade.
In this opportunity, we enjoyed a traditional waterproof belt, but combined silk, chiffon and a humble beige cotton, some with openings through which a floral lining, or decorated with patterns of flowers blurred, elegant and innocent, the prints of huge huge roses that adorned a 50s style dress, and to close, a pair of evening dresses, pink and white, very characteristic of the English style. While the models made their final pass under the lush flowers that adorned the arches.
Her overly ornate inspiration came from the gardens of Great Dixter in East Sussex, although beyond the delicate feelings that the flowers arouse in the designer, there were other uncomfortable sensations in these garments so little finished, dislodged on the body as if they were They would have found them hanging in the armory of a disgraceful home, although for others it was simply a display of precious garments. Burton explained “I also conceive her as a flower. Carry all her treasures. I have thought a lot about the seed banks and the healing flowers of ancient medicine. And I was interested in that idea that most women know where to find healing plants, while men have an instinct to discover poisons.”
Do not miss the detail of this collection that will conquer you!
