This morning it was reported that British designer Alexander McQueen committed suicide and was found in his home. This is very upsetting news for the fashion world, which highly regarded his work. McQueen was responsible for outfitting celebrities, such as Bjork, Sarah Jessica Parker and Lady Gaga, and just last year produced a successful Designer for Target collection.

The designer’s lower-priced line, McQ, was set to preview today during New York Fashion Week, but the presentation has been canceled. We are keeping McQueen’s family and friends in our thoughts today as they deal with this difficult news.
