why did you go so fast?

So about two days ago it was Alexander McQueen's show. Speechless really. The clothes were 80% finished at the time of his death, and well, the had to finish the 20% without McQueen. He was really inspired by the Byzantine Empire and the medieval era, at that time he was learning about them. Sixteen outfits, all handcrafted, a designer, one life. Amazing.

He also wrote a letter before he died, search at fashionista, its really something. A lost of talent.

Can he be...

I usually go to my daily blogs everyday just to find some fashion industry news and inspiration, today I went to fashionista.com. The first post is something that everyone have been talking about: Who would replace Alexander McQueen? It states in the article that "Gareth Pugh is the first name to pop-up". He is a truly an amazing designer, but can he really show us Alexander McQueen?

Here you see Gareth Pugh Fall/10 and Alexander McQueen Fall/09. He would be perfect.
Yet, I think the most amazing transformation was Karl Lagerfeld with Chanel. He really did put the brand up and he kept the classic and the charm.
