Lee Alexander McQueen (RIP)

On Friday 11th, 2010, just nine days after the passing of his mother, British fashion designer Alexander McQueen was found dead in his Mayfair home. Known for his unique cat walks, McQueen often captured the fashion world by using his models not only as mere subjects, but as aspects of live compositions that he composed using cages and live butterflies. Several days before the start of London fashion week, McQueen was prepared to view some of his pieces. Nevertheless, he will always be remembered as an iconic figure to the British fashion world and a creative genius to the runway.
