Sarah Burton paid tribute to English Romantic poet, painter and printmaker William Blake. Exploring imagination as a form of escapism and beauty emerging from darkness, this collection dismantled gender stereotypes with pastel prints, exploded ruffles and the star of the show – a T-shirt dress with multicoloured embroidery and a faded turquoise ombre skirt built from ripped strips of organza, tulle and chiffon.
