Death of A Fashion Icon


Last week, the fashion world tragically lost one it's most creative minds. Alexander McQueen died last Thursday February 11th, 2010 at the young age of 40. McQueen's death is still being investigated, but is currently being reported as a possible suicide. His mother also passed away earlier this month. McQueen tweeted about the death, letting on that he was having a difficult time dealing with the loss, but was being consoled by family and friends.


Mcqueen's runway shows were known for dramatic pieces and one-of-a-kind designs, though most may be more familiar with the work he did while designing for Gucci and Givenchy. Whether working on his own lines or designing for other brands, his work was unparelled. To describe him in one word: Genius.
