This leather jac from Alexander McQueen’s spring/summer 2012 collection is yet another brilliant display of Sarah Burton‘s McQueen aesthetics. With an elaborate Empire line of ruffles sitting on a raised waist, such obsessively detailed and intricately engineered delight is like a gothic goddess’s buried treasure.

While Burton shares Lee McQueen‘s stylistic philosophy, she doesn’t just mimic what the late fashion luminary had taught her: she interprets his genius and adds a touch of softness to make a creation her own. In this piece, you see McQueen, and you see Burton.
