Here is an extract from their conversation.
“Yes, I feel 2011 has been great,” Burton says. “It’s been a very emotional time and it’s great to still be here, to still be successful.”
“The winter show was quite hard,” she says, “This one is about extreme femininity. It’s a celebration of women really, of extreme embellishment and how a woman’s clothes may almost become her. I wanted to focus on all the techniques, the embroideries, the pleating, the finish, in a slightly fetishistic way. She’s not a woman for a man. She’s definitely a woman for a woman. Some of the looks were masked, you couldn’t quite see her. That was very Lee in a way. He took away the personalities of the models themselves and created an army of McQueen women. In this case, though, the fabrics were lighter. The masks were made out of lace and their fragility enhanced any beauty, I think."
