Celebrating Sarah Burton’s inaugural runway collection London - Arabstoday NET-A-PORTER.com, the world’s premier online luxury retailer, will exclusively offer customers a private order service in which to shop nine looks from the Fall-Winter 2012 collection in celebration of Sarah Burton’s first and much-lauded runway collection for McQ Alexander McQueen. This exceptional limited edition collection will be available to customers for seven days only from May 16. In a partnership that sees net-a-porter as the exclusive global retailer for this pre-launch period, a private order service will offer customers the opportunity to reserve these special pieces, which will then be made to order and delivered to the customer in time for the Fall-Winter season. Jonathan Akeroyd, CEO of Alexander Mcqueen said, “I'm excited to be working with net-a-porter on this special project, offering its huge global customer-base the chance to pre-order these special McQ runway pieces before anyone else. This is a first for both of us.” Holli Rogers, fashion director at net-a-porter says: “Sarah Burton is a true visionary. Her first MCQ Alexander McQueen runway show was a masterful blend of McQueen's synonymous avant-garde aesthetic and a delicate sensibility, realised by intricate embroidery and use of texture. We are excited that in our exclusive partnership we can offer our customers around the globe, this unique opportunity to own a piece of fashion history.”
