Rest in peace, sir.

He was very talented and creative even if at times I did find his creations a bit overrated.

L'enfant terrible of Couture has passed away ..

He just lost his beloved mum and was quite depressed .

RIP.

This is indeed very sad - I will hang an empty McQueen hanger up for one month as mourning. Seriously. He was really one of my favorites.
