The first time I met Sarah Burton properly was when Alexander McQueen was making my wedding dress. It was the spring of 2005 and I was a writer at American Vogue.Alexander was then at the height of his genius, and we'd become friends since meeting in the early 1990s. He had a charming studio in Islington, North , a beautiful space in a Victorian building flooded with natural light.He also had a brilliant team around him — including one Sarah Burton, his then 30-year-old head of design for womenswear, who'd joined his entourage as a 21-year-old intern in 1996.
