Death of British Fashion Icon - Alexander McQueen
A sad day for the fashion industry, especially in the midst of New York Fashion Week and just a few days before the London Fashion Week. McQueen was found dead in his home the morning of February 11, 2010, days after the death of his beloved mother - Joyce.
'Born in the East End and the son of a taxi driver, Alexander McQueen got his training in tailoring in Savile Row, eventually making suits for Prince Charles, and won the distinction of being named British Designer of the Year four times between 1996 and 2003.
He went on to be awarded the CBE, as well as being named International Designer of the Year at the Council of Fashion Designer Awards.
McQueen became the 'enfant terrible' of the fashion world after he was famously discovered by Isabella Blow, who was fashion director of Tatler. She bought all the clothes he made for his graduate show for 5,000 pounds, and they were delivered to her in black binliners.
Miss Blow killed herself in May 2007 after taking an overdose of weed killer after being diagnosed with ovarian cancer. '
