"There was a buzz at Alexander McQueen—a buzz generated, quite literally, by bees. “I don’t know what started it,” laughed Sarah Burton backstage before the show. “Maybe female worker bees, like all of us in the studio.” She picked up a cylindrical mesh headpiece and put it on. “These were inspired by beekeepers’ hats.” The result was certainly faithful to the late Alexander McQueen’s templates—the hourglass silhouette, the romantic crinolines, the uncompromising shoes (which this time were sculpted as hollow Lucite wedges, with golden crystals rattling in the heels). Burton, however, tends to look more to the positive creative forces of nature for her source material, and she’s got a bit of another kind of life-force creativity going on in a personal way, too: She’s pregnant, due in February." - vogue.com
