Alexander McQueen's Sarah Burton Wins 'Designer of the Year' at British Fashion Awards

Just before the holiday weekend, we told you that Paul Smith was set to be given the outstanding achievement prize by the British Fashion Council at this year’s British Fashion Awards, which was held this past Monday in London. Smith, of course, wasn’t the only happy recipient that evening. Sarah Burton, who took control of the Alexander McQueen line last year after the eponymous designer passed away, took home the Designer of the Year award.
