Fashion Icon Alexander McQueen has committed suicide

Popular British fashion designer Alexander McQueen has been found dead after taking his own life, at the age of 40.

Three years after the devastating death of his close friend Isabella Blow, a source at his office confirmed his death stating:

“It is a tragic loss. We are not making a comment at this time out of respect for the McQueen family.”

Alexander’s mother also sadly passed away last week. On Sunday Alexander wrote on Twitter: “Sunday evening been a fucking awful week but my friends have been great but now i have to some how pull myself together.”

McQueen was famous for his outstanding fashion designs for celebrities including Sarah Jessica Parker, Kate Moss, Prince Charles and his close friend Lady GaGa. Recently, he also had designed all the shoes Lady GaGa wore in her latest ‘Bad Romance’ video.

Our thoughts are with his family at this sad time.
