McQueen was one of my design heroes. I always admired how bold he was in his design style and vision.
This was his last show:
Yesterday he was found hanging in his home in London. I followed him online, and his last update baffled me.
“La reine Margot”.
I’m wondering if this is the last film he saw.
The story, as I followed it, is that McQueen’s mom died on the 2nd. And he was pretty much a wreck after that. His twitter updates were disturbing, but I don’t think anyone thought they would result in his hanging himself.
McQueen’s death is a loss to the creative community, and it’s personally disturbing to me, as it marks yet another creative hero of mine who, in one way or another, may have taken their own life.
