La Mort Est Un Processus Rectiligne

Death is a linear process.

A year. It's been year since Alexander McQueen's death. La mort est un processus rectiligne. Death is a linear process. It's my philosophical phrase of the moment. I've read it in a book for my French class and it made me think a lot. I'm not quite sure how to interpret it, but I'm closer than two weeks ago. But the thing I know is that it's going very well with today's subject.

February 11th 2010, McQueen suicide shortly after his mother's death. I think it's the event I was most marked of since the beginning of my ­"career" in fashion. He was a master all his collections were insane. He was known for his creativity and his unconventional sens of fashion. His runway were always dramatic, but beautiful to watch. He was the favorite of many artists, like Lady Gaga. Let's say McQueen will always be remembered.

As I was going through the different collections to chose the pictures to illustate this post I realise it will impossible for me to chose my favorite, I tried but with such a great work I'm sure I forgot some incredible pieces.

Spring 2011, his last. This collection blew me away.



I need to say that Sarah Burton did a fantastic job for this label, it will always remain one of my favorite!
I hope you'll have a little pensée for Alexander McQueen tomorrow and that everybody will remember him.
