La Mort De l'Enfant Terrible

It seems as if all of my favorite icons have been passing away recently! First JD Salinger, and now one of my favorite designers, Alexander McQueen.

Alexander McQueen designed the costumes for Les Nuits de Fourvière, a ballet featuring Sylvie Guillem, which I saw last summer in Lyon, France. Both the ballet and the clothes were absolutely magnificent -- by far the best ballet I've ever seen. I thought I would post some pictures from it as a tribute. The pieces are so beautiful, they make me want to cry.

I also thought this article from style.com was very well-written and touching.

Repose en paix, L'enfant Terrible.
