FASHION
Even egalitarian denim, the
fabric of sailors and socialites,
hairdressers and heiresses,
has been taken to new heights,
the stratosphere actually, by
Sarah Burton, creative director
at Alexander McQueen and the
undisputed queen of the Ruffles
and Romance Movement. In
the hands of this superstar
designer, denim becomes
transformed into a lush and
lavish textile that bejewels the
wearer. Her delicately sheer
gowns, most draped with airy
ruffles, always seem to offer
added elements which take
the garment to the periphery of
hard edged. Fairy princess with
leather jacket. Girly yet bold,
ultra feminine, with complete
headstrong self-assurance.
This is bravado dressing.
