RIP Alexander McQueen


Alexander McQueen the British fashion designer known for producing some of the most controversial collections of the last two decades, was found dead this morning at his apartment in London. He was only 40 years old.

McQueen has always been one of my favorite designers. I loved his imaginative and unique take on fashion. While the budget has never let me actually purchase one of his pieces, I've always enjoyed looking at them.

Here are a few examples of his work.
