Talking about most anticipated show at Paris Fashion Week, it is undoubtedly Alexander McQueen Spring 2011 Fashion Show. It is iconic designer Alexander McQueen’s successor and right-hand woman Sarah Burton’s debut Spring Collection.


After presenting Alexander McQueen Resort 2011 Collection, Sarah Burton has come up with Spring collection for fashion house. Sarah Burton’s first Spring Collection for Alexander McQueen opened with model stepping on runway donning tail coat with unfinished edges and peaked shoulders teamed with pants.

Unlike Alexander McQueen’s dramatic and dark stage presentation, Sarah went for a nurturing atmosphere with runway of floorboards with grass emerging from between them.



Plain white canvas, embroidery, butterfly print, feather adorned skirts, gowns and looks likegown of pleated organza, gown with a breastplate of gilded cornstalks, regal dresses with trains of pheasant feathers, silk ivy coated in black were amazing. Models’ braided hairstyle was also adding to beauty of show.

Tops looks of Alexander McQueen Spring 2011 collection included Bandaged chiffon dresses, dramatic sleeveless cream waistcoats adorned with manes of horsehair swinging down the back, gold brocade suits with dressage fringing at the neck and hems, white military frock coats, white broderie anglais dresses featuring beautiful sculpted corset belts of stiff golden leaves and lots more.


With Alexander McQueen Spring 2011 Paris Fashion Week Collection, Sarah Burton paid homage to late designer Alexander McQueen and proved to be worthy successor to a genuine fashion genius.
