Sarah Burton is one of the fashion industry’s most beloved figures and one of the few women creative directors at the helm of a legacy maison. When she was named to the top job at Givenchy, almost a year to the day after she had announced she was stepping down from her post at Alexander McQueen, where she had spent two decades, the excitement was palpable. Her debut collection for the French label, in March of this year, was a resounding success—the proof? Anne Hathaway wears it exclusively in her August Vogue cover story.
Burton joined Nicole Phelps from her home in London to talk about her new gig, the impact of social media on fashion, and what she loves most about her job.
Plus, Chioma and Chloe talk about Doechii’s new British Vogue cover, perverted prep at Michael Rider’s Celine debut, and Wimbledon couples style.
