To Lee With Love

Since the passing away of Lee Alexander McQueen, the whole of the fashion population has mourned his death. Nick Knight from SHOWstudio.com is no exception.



In celebration of Alexander McQueen's innovative and groundbreaking design, a fashion film from Nick Knight pays tribute to the genius of McQueen's creation. Here is the video:


The soundtrack, in case you're wondering is done by Björk.

In other McQueen news, he won the British Fashion Council Outstanding Award in Fashion for 2010. He won four times in the past years and revered globally for his fabulous tailoring, exciting, innovative and outrageous style on and off the runway, McQueen will be remembered as the most influential fashion designer of his generation.

Below are some photos from his previous collection featured on this link.
