Tragic his wishes won't be honoured. Moneygrab.

His runway will never be the same, sad!

Thanks for sharing

Gucci needs its money, plain and simple. They should not carry on McQueen without MCQUEEN

at lleast mcqueen is being carried on by sara burton his understudy of 5 years instead of someone compleatly diffren and has no idea of what mcqueen was or did. and in my opinion shes doing an amazing job :)

[Katzenfreundin]

So sad he is gone :-(

[666unicornslayer]

agreed. personally, im not a fan of sarah burton's work... i find it too safe, repetitive, and overall too girly. u know the brand will never be the same again.

Sarah can do so much better and still pull off a ready to wear line, to bring the Mqueen line up from that beginning stage financialy. Like I think she needs to think alot harder conceptually. Like idk bring Christian Siriano to help or something.

@phoneylala90 same i just saw it and it seemed way to normal, very generic and mainstream, no creativity or eccentricity. Mcqueen will never be replaced, plain and simple.

[nkaneti]

no one will take over this brand and match up to his talent, however sarah burton has  done an amazing job keeping mcqueens traditions.

God save mcqueen.

[flipsun12]

I completely agree with Lee. This is how i've always felt about the succeeder of lines. However, mcqueen was a revolutionary designer- the most incredible artist of the 21st century thus far- and i think it is a beautiful thing for his line to ever last with all that he left behind. Although the shows are not the same without him, sarah burton can serve the fashion world with the vision of mcqueen at heart, andsurvive him through all of theknowledge andexperiences they sharedwhile he was alive.
