“I love the idea of people having the time to make things together, the time to meet and talk together, the time to reconnect to the world”, Sarah Burton wrote in her tome of notes for
Alexander McQueen’s SS20 collection. Whipped up in silk, the print on this dress was originally embroidered by the label’s staff (yes, even HR) with line drawings sketched during a life drawing class by students at Central Saint Martins. It takes a village, after all.
