ViviLittleM 3 Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 LADY GAGA REMEMBERS MCQUEENTEXT LADY GAGA YESTERDAY MORNING, LADY GAGA ACQUIRED SOME OF THE MOST COVETED TREASURES DESIGNED BY THE LATE LEE ALEXANDER McQUEEN, WHICH WERE AUCTIONED BY CHRISTIE'S TO BENEFIT UNICEF. HERE, IN A VERY SPECIAL, DEEPLY PERSONAL EXCLUSIVE MEMO, SHE SHARES HER MEMORIES, EMOTIONS, AND GRATITUDE FOR AN ARTIST WHO LEFT THIS WORLD TOO SOONThere is no diamond, no award, nothing I ever wanted more than a memory of my brief friendship with McQueen. I am sad every day that I enter my closet, knowing he is not here anymore to dazzle the world with his beautiful, dark, limitless, brave mind. These shoes are the only tangible piece I have left of our work together. They came to me this morning, after a dream I had again about him. As the dream goes, I enter my closet and his clothes are no longer there. I'm tortured. The loss is deep. Mourning in my own way constantly, why he is gone, he was so talented. I hate the empty space, not only in fashion, but in the creative consciousness that fizzled when he passed. This morning I got the call I would now be the caregiver to 3 pairs of armadillo platforms, just like the kind I wore in the "Bad Romance" video, the shoes from his crescendo collection "Plato's Atlantis," the ones that made everyone gasp from the front row because they had NEVER seen something like them before. I was reminded this morning that he is still here. He is everywhere. In every store window. In the designs of commercial mainstream retail, fashion, in music, in the heart of every young designer that wishes he could be as free and as fearless as McQueen was. I cried all morning, convinced he was with me. Convinced that I'm loved from somewhere far beyond the eternal body and mind, outside of all the chaos. He wanted me to have them. They made their way back to me. I am here today not just because of my talent, but because he believed in me. My weird brand of art pop manic expression of my emotions was the part of me he knew he taught me. I will be grateful long after I pass and join him wherever it is they put souls like us. Long live McQueen. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kulture Kiari 3,433 Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 Omg. Poor Gaga. You can still hear Gaga's sadness of losing Alexander McQueen, even after all this time. Alexander truly was a great designer and his death really shocked me. I know he is somewhere out there happy than when he was in his human form.

Head Empty 25,071 Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 No matter what brand Gaga will be the face of in the years to come, I always feel like she shines brightest when she's wearing McQueen. Happiness will never last, darkness comes to kick your ass... ᵃˢˢ 🕺 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coldplay 217 Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 How long was their friendship? I think McQueen was truly a master of performance art. His shows were pure art... I wish he and Gaga had gotten the time to work on a performance for her together. His show with the mirrored glass was genius. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miracle 14,068 Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 What has happened to all the dresses she has worn made by him? Why does she only have three pairs of armadillo shoes?I thought she had a lot of clothes by Alexander Mcqueen. This is kind of sad Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoveandMagic 1,731 Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 He made wearable "art" in every sense of the word. It's a shame. Just repeat to yourself, "It's just a show. I should really just relax." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonterAK 55 Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 ALEXANDER MCQUEEN WAS ONE OF THE BEST, IF NOT THE BEST, DESIGNER AND HE STILL IS A LEGEND, EVEN AFTER HIS DEATH. I AM TRULY AND DEEPLY HAPPY THAT GAGA WAS BLESSED ENOUGH TO WORK WITH HIM AND MOST IMPORTANTLY TO BE CLOSE FRIENDS! MCQUEEN WAS AND IS ART, GAGA IS ART, SO TWO ARTISTIC MINDS CAME TOGETHER AND CREATED MAGIC ♥ ALEXANDER MCQUEEN WILL ALWAYS BE IN OUR MINDS AND SOULS. SOMETHING TELLS ME THAT GAGA WILL WRITE A SONG, A SONG WICH WILL BE ALL ABOUT MCQUEEN FOR HER NEXT ALBUM! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sister 9,907 Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 And they were perfectly matched. Gaga expresses it all so well. The future's uncertain and the end is always near. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
