We are shocked with the suicide news of fashion icon Alexander McQueen, one of the British fashion industry brightest stars found dead at his Central London home yesterday. The news come a week prior London Fashion Week and he was due to be shown at New York Fashion Week yesterday and Paris next month. This is our way to show our respect.

On our Twitter, we followed Alexander McQueen’s tweets after the death of his mother and recall reading his tweet about 10 days ago:

“I’m letting my followers know that my mother passed away yesterday if it she had not had me nor would you RIP mumxx.” …and a following tweet read: “But life must go on!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”

His Twitter page is today disabled and all we can say is; Alexander – you will be missed… May you rest in peace.
