Alexander McQueen


As many others, I have read that one of my favourite clothes designers today took his own life. The world and the fashion world lost one very big designer today and I wish he will rest in peace.


In fashion he was for me, so incredibly bold and made so special pieces. I have several of his clothes and my outfit when performing in swedish morning TV together with Pain was his design.

  1. That's sooo sad. Rest in peace.

    I get being so angry when I saw Heidi Klum saying: It's a big lost for the Fashion World. That's so cruel. We also should people see as humans not what they express, they do and they show.It's sadly enough that the world just look of materials !!!

    Heidi, that was bad !

    Rest in Peace, Alex !

    Anette I wish you a good evening.

    Hugs ♥

  4. Oh, I'm so sorry for that :( I haven't heard so much about him even though I follow the fashion things. *many hugs to you*
    Why did he took his own life?

    I must say that you really rock in that clip! =)
    Those shoes look like Lady Gaga's shoes which she uses in her music video.

  5. It's so sad...I read this earlier
    today and couldn't believe it...
    I loved his clothes. They were really
    inspiring and audacious. They stood out and
    looked really good and creative.
    Rest in Peace Alexander McQueen...

    By the way, you look awesome and you sound
    amazing girl! I love this performance,
    oh- and I liked it when you sang
    "Shut Your Mouth" when they came on tour with
    Nightwish. Now that was awesome!

    Hugs and love, Katie T.

  9. I'm still in tears and cannot believe that. And the weird thought spinning round in my head - "And I haven't even spoken to him"... I wished this would once happen so much...
    Rest in Peace, Lee. You'll stay the best for me.

  10. So sorry to hear about this sad news. Death has always got to be hurting for the family and friends. It must be hard to understand the personal hell in which this guy mind was to make this action the solution.
    May he rest in peace.
    Warm hugs from Brazil.

  11. I hoped 2010 wouldn't be as bad as 2009. I still hope, but with every death of a talented person it is getting harder and harder.
    RIP Alexander.

  14. It's so sad, that more and more people ( Alexander McQueen, your friend :'( ) take her life and die. ´

    But I must confess that I was already on the verge to take my own life..

    Hejdo, vi ses och god natt.

  15. Wow, that's really sad and so shocking! He was truly an amazing artist, who will definitely go down in history! Rest in peace <3

    Hope you can enjoy the rest of the evening dear Anette. I'm watching Glee, makes me smile and laugh :)

    Love, Mads

  19. Of course, I got to know about his suicide... I can't imagine how someone feels wanting to end their own lives, he must have gotten mad...

  20. Hi Net!

    It's a big loss for all of us. It's always sad when a person decides to end her own life.

    Isn't that shoes you posted the one that Lady Gaga used in her video "Bad Romance"?
    I have one or two clothes made by him, he was truly a special guy. So sad...
    Oh, and about your perform, it was adorable, but I think your microphone was a little to low, I could barely hear you.
    I miss your voice so much! Can't wait till your solo album come out >.<

    Warm Hugs!

  21. This is very sad... Gosh, it looks like every great talent in the artist world is dying. I've lost Michael Jackson and Alexander McQueen in such a curt space of time...

    And for as designer, it's even more sad...

    May him rest in peace =(

  22. It's sad that he took his own life. I guess the death of his mother was too much for him. No matter who you are, losing someone close to you is always heart-breaking, and moving on is a very hard thing to do. Even after years pass, there's always a scar from that loss when you look back.
    RIP Alexander McQueen.

    I think my speakers have problems. I can barely hear your voice in the vid, Anette :(

  23. I cried when I heard the news, he's always been such a great inspiration to me, yesterday was a horrible day.

  24. @Sonia: You follow the "fashion things"? and you haven't heard of the most famous designer of the last decades? "fashion things" doesn't equal etsy mate. And all the clothes Gaga used in that video were made by Alexander.

  29. Since I heard that yesterday the thing that always come in my mind is one.. Since I was a little girl in school and started learning about fashion with my best friend he was the one that fascinated me the most.. So original and unique,there are many designers that are unique of course,but he became my favourite since... The thing that I keep thinking is that all his innovation will be missing now from the fashion world... I know he will be missed as a person from the ones taht now him but the rest of us,what will be missed is his work and creations,if we want to be honest...

    Anyway,I hope he rests now..

  30. May he rest in peace. I do not like those shoes...they look........weird. But that black combination looks nice.
    PAIN!!! Oh , how I love those guys!! Thanks for the video , it's wonderful!

  31. Great performance and nice to see you together with your boyfriend performing this song! :-)

  32. This was so sad to hear about. I really like his fashions and really sympathize for him. He must have been feeling incredibly lost without some of the most important people in his life; having lost his Mum, friend and Auntie.

    I've lost in my life too, but I don't know what I'd do if I lost my Mum right now. I think I'd crumble and want to die, but know I mustn't do anything like this. There are so many people I want to live for. Honestly.

    Well, the song was awesome, Anette and have some of PAIN's songs on my PC playlist and listen to them while I work.

    Warm wishes and huggs!!

    PS..I've noticed that some people, like Tuomas Holopainen pronounce your name Anet-te, instead of Anette such as Americans do. I understand that Finnish people pronounce every letter verbally and thought this may be why, but not sure. Just courious and not important.
