RIP Alexander McQueen

The world has lost an incredibly amazing and talented designer. When I first started to become interested in fashion, I was drawn to McQueen right away and have continued to be a huge fan. He was so innovative as a designer and will leave a huge hole in the industry. Gosh, I feel so crappy, I don't even feel like posting anything else. Here are some of my favourite things he did.

this is such a tragedy. He was a remarkably visionary designer, I could always count on his collections to enchant.

I'm still in shock. McQueen was an absolute genius. There is truly a void in the fashion world now that he's gone. What a tragic way to start off New York Fashion Week. RIP. :(

What a bummer. It's interesting that fashion week and the Olympics are occurring around the same time, and both events were rocked by major losses that occurred right before everything started. He certainly carved out his own style that no one could replicate.
