A well done suicide is an art form all on its own.

I wonder how he did it. I've never heard of him before, but I like a few of his pieces that I just looked up. This year's a pretty bad year deaths-wise for the design community.

Bulletproof brooch and on/off are the first ones to spring to mind because we have them here. I also love the chandelier he did dipped in rubber.

With the way standards are dropping it will probably be semi-formaldehyde by then...

McQueen and Wong--both homosexual designers. Coincidence? I think not. Show me a happy homosexual and I'll show you a gay corpse as one of the lines from The Boys in the Band go.
