Style Icon: I want your horror, I want your design

In honor of the late and great Alexander McQueen I decided to share some pictures of my favorite ladies wearing his designs. Most recently I loved the dynamic relationship that Lady Gaga and him had. His designs perfectly reflected her artistic abilities in the form of extreme clothes and shoes. I think the Bad Romance video will be a bitter sweet remembrance of how the two artist inspired each other.
This muse and artist relationship was tragically cut too short...

And I promised not to post this again, but I had to today, so this will be the last time I post it, I promise! My DIY knockoff of Lady Gaga's outfit she wore when accepting her VMA designed by Alexander McQueen. Although my version does not the McQueen version justice.
Lady Gaga must have a huge whole in heart now... =(

And other not so extreme looks I love. I always regretted not getting my hands on this McQueen romper.

The Famous McQueen skull scarf. My friend Wendy picked one up yesterday, I may have to get my hands on one as well.

Nicole always look fabulous in his dresses. Just the right amount of edge.

Or a the perfect bohemian vibe.

This shirt as Seen on Jessica Simpson is the only McQ item I own and I happen to be wearing it today. It's been a while since I wore it but I went and dug it up yesterday.

His spirit will forever live on through his designs. Such a sad start to Fashion week...

  4. So tragic:( His contribution to fashion definitely will not be forgotten.

    On a lighter note...I LOVE Lady Gaga. That is definitely one of my favorite videos...her style in it was just amazing.
