Sad news hit the fashion world yesterday as the death of one of the greatest high fashion designers, Lee Alexander McQueen, was discovered. He was know for always putting on a show and shocking his viewers and fans. In a time when we think we have seen it all and nothing new can come out of fashion, McQueen always seemed to create that something new. His designs were dark, cutting edge, impeccably tailored...in a word: extraordinary.His runway shows were theatrical. Even if you didn't know a thing about fashion, you would be entertained and awe struck. His shows were unconventional and lavish, he pushed the envelope and never stopped. This tragedy will leave a hole in the fashion world for quite some time.
This photo is from his last runway show in Milan last month. McQueen will be greatly missed. He was a genius and his shoes will be very hard to fill.
