Comments (2) Emo

Today is a sad day for all in the fashion industry, and all who love fashion.

“British fashion designer Alexander McQueen has been found dead after taking his own life. The 40-year-old committed suicide just days after the death of his mother, Joyce.

His death also comes just three years after his close friend, Isabella Blow – who plucked him from obscurity and helped him become a star – killed herself. McQueen was found at his luxury flat in Green Park, central London. It is believed he hanged himself.

A source at McQueenโ€™s office this afternoon confirmed his death, saying: โ€˜It is a tragic loss. We are not making a comment at this time out of respect for the McQueen family.โ€™

His death comes just days before the start of London Fashion Week and weeks before he was due to unveil his new collection at Paris Fashion Week on March 9.”
