outside of the McQueen store by Julia Chesky

I heard the news just as I was boarding a flight to NY and my heart broke then and there. Julia put it best for me, and I’m paraphrasing here, but it feels like fashion, art, the world even, lost some of the brightest (and perhaps darkest) hues in the spectrum along with McQueen. Things may be that much duller without his constant challenge, but the imprint McQueen left through his life and work can undoubtedly spark the creativity needed to bring the poetry back to fashion. Whatever your game, I dare us all to try and shine as brightly as Alexander McQueen.
