When it came to the runway, no one created more drama than Mr. Alexander McQueen. His electrifying style was infectious (and intoxicating). He took fashion for what it should always be — expressive, creative and sometimes, completely over the top! So, it is with an especially heavy heart that I bid farewell to one of my favorite designers.
Lee Alexander McQueen was found dead today, at the age of 40, in his London home. Just as his designs had a tendency toward the dramatic, so to did his death (suicide by hanging). It's too soon to say why such a talented person would end their life. Our thoughts and prayers are with the McQueen family at this tragic time.

I couldn't agree more.

In a world where every man and his dog is a designer, Alexander McQueen was the real deal. His talent was supersonic.
I couldn't agree more.
