Fashion BREAKING: Designer Alexander McQueen Dead at 40

Posted by Jonny Diamond on Thu, Feb 11, 2010 at 10:46 AM

The Guardian is reporting that Alexander McQueen, erstwhile bad boy of British fashion, was found dead in his London home last night. No word yet on cause of death. More details to come.

UPDATE: Most reports now confirm that McQueen appears to have hanged himself in his London apartment; he was apparently distraught over the death of his mother last week.
