      This is great news that the house has picked someone from within the walls, and has worked with McQueen for sometime before his death.

      If anyone can continue his line without hitting any snags, it’s going to be Sarah Burton. I’m confident she will deliver.

      Well I look forward to the change. Even know I know there’s alot of people out there who are not happy about it. It just has to be done.

      I’ve never heard of her before, but I’m not really that into the “who’s who” of everything. I do love McQ clothing though and I’m excited to see how the new collection will turn out.
