I loved what Sarah Burton said about her recent collection for Alexander McQueen…

 “I was thinking about the female form, and some pictures David Sims took of roses,” she explained. “There’s such beauty in all stages of the life of a rose. So there’s this sense of a woman, who becomes slightly unraveled as she goes along and her clothing starts peeling away. . . .”

“Slightly unraveled” is what inspired this combination of patent wedding shoes, lace hosiery by Hue and a delicately, pleated slip from A Vintage Affair.

If you’re like me, you might want to switch to flats later in the evening.  Here are yesterday’s lace sneakers, if you’d like to see.
