PASSINGS



Designer Alexander McQueen, who this blog dearly loved and thought was a fashion genius, ended his own life.

A UK paper reports:


"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 McQueen’s office this afternoon confirmed his death, saying: ‘It is a tragic loss. We are not making a comment at this time out of respect for the McQueen family.’ 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...


Of course all of our prayers and thoughts go out to his friends, family and husband, George Forsyth.  The two were married for 10 years.

So sad.  Fashion has lost a creative, original and individualistic mind.
