This collection was “about sisterhood, about women’s milestones and rituals: birth, christenings, weddings, funerals, so says Sarah Burton, head designer at the fashion house. She informs that ”it’s about being strong and emotional, but also saying it’s okay to show your vulnerability; not to have to put a brave face on it.” The first look was symbolic: a super-fragile knitted lace dress with leg-of-mutton sleeves, with what might be interpreted as a blacksmith’s apron belted to its side. Tenderness and strength together.
