Sarah Burton presented her first collection as Creative Director for Alexander McQueen and although the show favoured conventional catwalk over theatrics, the impact was no less dramatic. Infulentional international hair-stylist Guido created basket weave beauty - the result of lengthy hair extensions and an intricate weave technique. Extending to spindly plaits, that trailed across shoulders and over arms, the intricate design reconciled ethereal beauty with a fashionable flair - epitomising Alexander McQueen's legacy.
