the fashion world mourns an icon

Alexander McQueen, one of the greatest and most unique designers of our time has passed away today. McQueen was the head designer for Givenchy before founding his McQ and Alexander McQueen labels. His completely unconventional and artistic style is amazing to watch on the runway. If you are unfamiliar with his work, I highly suggest checking out some of his shows, a few of which can be found herehere, and here. While we all mourn the passing of such an amazing artist, check out some of my personal favorites of his. 





 
"I think the idea of mixing luxury and mass-market fashion is very modern — wearing head-to-toe designer has become a bit passé. It’s a new era in fashion — there are no rules. It’s all about the individual and personal style, wearing high-end, low-end, classic labels, and up-and-coming designers all together. " -Alexander McQueen
