Reports from London say that Alexander McQueen was found dead in his home Thursday morning. While it is too soon to know what happened - deepest condolences to his family. McQueen was 40 years old.
McQueen was known to be a troubled soul who had struggled with personal demons for years.
What a tragedy for this young talent to leave us so soon. While never achieving the commercial success he could have, there was such a strong momentum building. It seemed that Mr. McQueen was finding a niche, and a way to commercialize his dark view of fashion. Lady GaGa had recently put McQueen on the map for millions around the world, as her fans obsess over her outrageous costumes - much of which is from McQueen.
The designers website was off-line at the time this article went live.
Rest In Peace Mr. McQueen.
