Long live McQueen

It's been two weeks since Alexander McQueen took his own life, and I have been not stop thinking and admiring his work.  Truth be told, he was the reason that I got into fashion.  Many of his extravagant pieces where inspiration for my senior collection.  It is hard for me to even pick a favorite piece in his collections as they are all amazing

I was bored today and procrastinating per usual and for some reason listening to Lady Gaga I decided to doodle on of McQueen's head pieces.

 

My boyfriend thinks I was a bit ridiculous when I nearly cried when I heard the news of McQueen's death, since I did not know him personally.  It is hard to explain, even though I never knew him,  his works moved me.  With the wonders of the internet I was able to view his collections and see his shows.  His designs where not just cloths, they were works of art, and always made me wonder what he will do next.

The world lost a creative genius, and great artist, and a friend.

Long live McQueen.
