Today I was devastated to find out that one of the best designers had passed away: Alexander McQueen. McQueen was best known for his fearless avant-garde fashion designs and his impeccable tailoring. His work was over the top but it a wonderful, tasteful way and that is what made his such a famous designer.
He is know for looks like this:
These are very avant-garde and beautiful.
But he also known for his wonderful ready to wear fashions like these:
These are stunning, flowing dresses that shows off all of his wonderful tailoring.
McQueen's name has made a much bigger splash after he teamed up with Lady GaGa on his most recent fashion show where GaGa released her newest single: Bad Romance. She whore almost ALL McQueen in her Bad Romance video:
But McQueen is very popular with MANY celebrities on the red carpet not just GaGa:
Cate Blanchett in McQueen at the Benjamin Button Premiere
Victoria "Posh" Beckham
Rihanna in McQueen
McQueen was an amazing man who was different and an artist. He created art, not all can understand such fashions but he created true avant-garde and pushed it to new heights.
Many were surprised by the death of McQueen, here are some tweets from people in shock:
MrJayManuel twetted: I'm just stunned and devastated at the huge loss the fashion industry took today. Alexander McQueen was a genius!! RIP

Those are just a few of celebrities stunned over the loss of such a great man. Twitter is overwhelmed with people twitting about McQueen!
This is a very sad blog but I felt is was necessary to blog about a man that has changed the fashion world for ever. He will be there right next to Chanel and Dior, he was a fabulous man. My Heart, thoughts, and prayers go out to him and his family during this horrible and difficult time.
