RUNWAY:: Fine China + McQueen

It's no secret Sarah Burton has some pretty major shoes (lobster shoes) to fill at Alexander McQueen. But she's certainly won my heart with the following two dresses.
The bodices were constructed with broken bits of China.
Exquisite.
I imagine this dress would be excruciatingly heavy to wear.


I bet Jane from Sea of Shoes could rock some porcelain shoes pretty hard.
And I'm already wondering how John Jannuzzi of Textbook will use these dresses!
(If you've never read Textbook, go. now. It's my favorite).


DIY anyone?

  3. Those heels are actually heavenly. The shattered china dress was a clear winner in the collection, totally agree x

  4. Could you imaging seeing someone wearing this dress in a real life setting?...
    I would not be able to keep my hands to myself.

    Cheers!

  5. She's done a great job so far and I had no idea that she used porcelain for the gown and shoes - what a unique and edgy look!
