3. Wow - that is shocking!
He was a great designer. I didn't always like his creations, but he definitely stirred debate among the fashion writers.

There are a lot of very sad people in the fashion world today. :(

4. I loved his work.
I am NOT the kind of girl that can wear it but I loved watching what he did and borrowing a little snip here and there. I felt so SUBVERSIVE wearing my skull scarf to corporate meetings. :) He will be missed.

5. I'm really shocked since Vivienne Westwood never committed suicide...
I thought McQueen followed her lead in everything

6. Very sad. I didn't know much about his work, but there are designers I
admire greatly, and it is not an easy thing to do, to become a great clothing designer.

I was really touched when I read about his reaction to his mother's death.

Very sad, and thank you for posting about this.
