International fashion designer Alexander McQueen, 40, was found dead this morning. The designer who often designed outfits for Lady Gaga, Rihanna, and Sarah Jessica Parker was found in his London home early this morning.
Reports suggest that McQueen took his own life, but the official cause of death has not been reported.
The British fashion icon inspired and styled many. He was voted England's Designer of the Year four times between 1996 and 2003. He was later named head designer at the Paris couture house Givenchy.
His death comes as a complete shock to many. "At this stage it is inappropriate to comment on this tragic news beyond saying that we are devastated and are sharing a sense of shock and grief with Lee's family," A statement from the designer's office read. "Lee's family has asked for privacy in order to come to terms with this terrible news and we hope the media will respect this."
