Sarah Burton.  Her time is now.  Producing the eye-searing clothes that would’ve had Isabella Blow dragging on her ash-dripping ciggie with uncontained pleasure..

A femininity of drama without being frilly with the power to take us on flights of fancy away from grey pavements and cramped tube carriages.

Blurring the lines between couture and ready to wear, the workmanship is sensational – like elves and fairies have been at work.

Pushing the boundaries, McQueen’s never been ordinary or suburban.  In a unique niche, it always has to be more.  More than the High Street with the power to defy industry molds.

A bird of paradise brought to life in the urban jungle.  You just want to stroke it’s gentle plumes and calm it’s beating heart.

The perfect Oscar dress?

Cate Blanchett?

And all this from the woman with one year old twins?…I doff my vermillion ostrich feathered Tracey to her..but I also want to give her a cuddle…and a nice cup of tea with a biccie on the side..

Laters, Kate x
