Alexander McQueen suicide

British fashion designer Alexander McQueen (40) committed suicide on 11 February, days after his mother’s death. Designer Katherine Hamnett told the UK’s Daily Mail, “He was a genius. What a terrible, tragic waste.” Fellow designer Matthew Williamson said, “I am shocked and deeply saddened by McQueen's death. He was a genius, and his talent was second to none. Like many others, I always cited him as a hugely inspirational leader of world fashion. He will be greatly missed.”
