With profound respect for artisanal works puts exquisite craftsmanship the heart of the house of Alexander McQueen’s latest collection. Looking to the people of Spitalfields from the late 17th century, the Huguenot migrants who arrived in London as religious refugees, the collection’s bohemian elegance was inspired by their knowledge, skill in weaving and a love of naturalistic floral designs inspired by “The Line of Beauty” philosophy. Sarah Burton draws on the roots and myths of English folklore to bring together the mood of the SS16 collection.
