RIP – Remembering Alexander McQueen


How somebody this talented and successul can end their life in such tragedy? What made Alexander McQueen feel the way he felt and what is the reason for his death? We will never be able to answer these questions. But we can remember him as one of the famous designers of our time who has been a fresh stream into the fashion world with his delighful, young, innovative designs which has been appealing to every age.

Whose unforgettable 10-12 inch stilletos have been huge hit on the runways around the world. Whose couture gowns have been worn not only during fashion and movie awards but have been embraced as a piece of fashion art. What can be more fulfilling when you see everybody raving about the "alien-like creatures" who have invaded the Fashion Week in each major fashion capital. Kate Moss, Annabelle Neilson and Naomi Campbell have introduced the designer during his tribute at the London Fashion Week and have been truly proud to be standing on that runway and being part of this overwhelming emotion cat walk ever.

When I was writing an article about McQueen's Titanic Ballerina Pumps, I would never predict that I would be writing another aricle upon his death. It is a good moment to think of what we do in life and start appreciating people while they are among us... try to be more attentive, more patient, loving and caring towards each other. On this note, I want to wish Alexander McQueen to RIP.
