Sarah Burton took over as creative director of Alexander McQueen in 2010 following his tragic death. She has succeeded in the task that many thought impossible and had took on the McQueen brand as if he never left. She has injected a feminine softness into the collection that McQueen had never done before, however she has stayed true to his legacy and the Alexander McQueen style is being carried forth.
Since his death she has achieved a lot - including designing Katherine Middleton's wedding gown, winning designer of the year 2011 and winning gown of the year 2011.
