Alexander McQueen (1969 - 2010)

A great loss in the fashion industry. I became a fan some time last year.

If you have seen Lady Gaga's Bad Romance video, then you have seen his creations. All the killer heels that Gaga wore in that video and the golden symmetrical shaped dress were McQueen's amazing design. Some of Kylie's tour outfits were also crafted by the late British designer.

Just as Gaga incorporates art into music, McQueen truly was an innovator at incorporating art into fashion. His creations were unreal, unimaginable... until you see it on a figure, then it just comes together as a literal WORK OF ART.


Here are some pics (from Style.com) of his Spring 2010 "Plato's Atlantis" collection.


He may be gone, but his legacy remains.
