Alexander McQueen fall 2020


Why is it so difficult for any of the so-called media elite reviewers to just write a review about the clothes? All this rabble about the inspirations and the whys and wherefores don’t appear on the racks… just the clothes so why not cut the crap and either talk about the clothes ... say you love them say you hate, them and why and jeez have an opinion!

Sarah Burton continues to work her magic when it comes to channeling Alexander McQueen which is more important than a nod to the Celts!   The clothes are precise, edgy and this time around a much-pared down version without all the extreme details but certainly a long way away from being boring.

To me, many of the leathers looked a tad heavy handed but then again, I’m rarely a fan of leather dresses or suits and then there were the prints which is always a sticking point in any collection and lastly the fixation with that back-floor length panel cum train…. Not exactly necessary or appealing on a lot of pieces.

Let’s speak of the beauty of the broderie anglaise looks the magnificent tailoring of the suits and the gowns and dressy dresses which were so beautiful and a few even appearing lighter than air which is certainly not a typical McQueen look.

As a whole it is still one more homage to the genius who left behind his alter ego to carry on his talents in unimaginable ways. Kudos to you Sarah Burton…
