Alexander McQueen Dead at 40

According to the Daily Mail British fashion Icon and CO favorite Alexander McQueen has committed suicide. This is a sad day in the fashion world. Less than 4 months ago Korean Supermodel Daul Kim took the same way out. What makes this really unfortunate is that McQueen was at his peak, the upper echelon of the fashion world, especially after the recent unveiling of the Mcqueenadillos. Our prayers go out to his family, friends, and fans worldwide.

Quotes:

“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.”
