a tribute to the icon, Alexander Mcqueen.

as a very theatrical designer, Alexander's creation has always been one-of-a-kind and out-of-this-world. His clothes are always stylishly-advance thus making them unforgettable even after the season. lets take a look back on his masterpieces.

ladies and Gentlemen, here's the Knight-of-fashion Mr. Alexander Mcqueen's most stunning creations...










i have seen these photos merely million times already but it still gives me goose bumps. pieces which gave us the idea that fashion is indeed beyond art, its not waste and not luxurious junk. these are creations that just dont speak, they scream with total sense. an absolute visual-stunner and unbelievably entertaining, a well deserved standing ovation... Thank you, Mr. McQueen.

the runways will never be the same without you...

R.I.P. ALexander McQueen, 1969-2010



Iconic fashion designer Alexander "lee" McQueen was found hanging dead in his london home, Thursday. Speculation is that McQueen was completely devastated by the recent loss of his beloved mother, and out of depression, hanged himself to death.

His mother, Joyce died on feb 02, 2010 and he took it so heavily. in one of McQueen's interview he was qouted as saying that his greatest fear was "to die before you", referring to his mother. aside from moms death, Lee McQueen also faced sadness as close pal isabella blow left 3 years ago and last years death of his aunt Dolly, a fixture in all his shows. He was also facing pressure to complete his Fall/Winter 2010 women's wear collection that's set to be launched on Paris next month.

The death of one of the worlds fashion genius has sent out million-bolt of shock waves to the fashion industry especially at the opening of an important event, the New York's fashion week. Alexander's friends and colleagues received the devastating news right at the beginning of the first major show beneath the tent at Bryant Park. Right after the last model walked off the runway, Vogue-editor-in-chief Anna Wintour quickly and immediately stepped out as other guests remained seated, stunned and shocked.

This is probably one of Fashion world's most devastating news. He might not be as great and legendary as Yves Saint Laurent but he sure as hell brought the style and haute couture perspective to an astronomical level sending breath-taking items on the runway especially in his last collection, dubbed "Plato's Atlantis".

I personally mourn for his loss. Ciao Mr. McQueen, you will be remembered... forever.

real killer shoes


yes, i think this is somehow overdue and everybody's talking about it or they're done talking already but i just got this blog set up so im kind of delayed.

anyway, i just wanna say how bizarre and ridiculously fashionable these crazy Alexander Mcqueen "armadillo pumps" are. They're totally over the top and alien-like. Even those people believed to be the worlds best walkers and who are being paid to walk on runways wearing sky-high stilettos chickened out after they saw the shoes. Top models Abbey Lee Kershaw, Natasha Poly and Sasha Pivovarova quit the Mcqueen show out of fear, i guess. i mean, look at that! You could kill an adult cow or even King Kong with those heels, seriously.

But the shoes' shape has not stopped Lady gaga and london-socialite Daphne Guiness from wearing one.
