Dear Alexander McQueen: You Will Be Forever Remembered.

After school today, my mom informed me of the death of Alexander McQueen. For those of you who don't know, he's a revolutionary British Avant Garde designer. He's designed for many celebrities, including Lady Gaga (every pair of crazy, platform heels in the Bad Romance video? Yup, those are all Alexander McQueen). His designs are so unique and his runway shows like art, that even though he has passed, he will always be a part of the fashion community.

I haven't posted any journals in a while, but I thought it was fit to share this because I did not see any journals or news articles about him here on mibba (contrary to the Rev...). The news of Alexander McQueen's death saddened me, for he was, and remains, one of my favorite designers. It's with a heavy heart that I inform you that the world has lost another great artist to suicide. He was only 40.
