Joseph Ettedgui dies.

Joseph Ettedgui, the founder of Joseph fashion label, died yesterday morning in a hospital in London. The stores of Joseph had all of the eccentric and up and coming designers of the moment stocked, including Emmanuelle Khanh, Kenzo, Alexander McQueen, Gucci, Prada and Celine.

A memorial will take place today in London.

I want I want I want...

These new Alexander McQueen pieces; the Alantis plexi clutch, the Infinity dress and the heart peep toe yellow soled heels, are my personal must haves, I just have to conjure up around £2,000. Here's wishing.

Cat thrown at Dame Vivienne Westwood.

At Vivienne Westwood's fashion show at Paris week a stuffed cat was thrown onto the stage. Whether it was a surprise or an intentional part of the show, Westwood was close to being struck.

The stuffed cat was thrown from the audience as models gasped. These pictures show the event. The stuffed cat was eventually retrieved by a model and given to Westwood as a gift, the event was brushed off as a humourous event.

'Heart-breakingly beautiful, Alexander McQueen's final collection.

As my favourite designer, inspiration and icon in fashion, it pains me to write this piece.

Lee McQueen's unfinished collection was shown in a private state apartment in Paris this week. His collection was acclaimed by many critics as "heart-breakingly beautiful." and how right they were. His surreal designs captured elegance and pure beauty. The stunning cuts, perfect drapes and delicate grace in his prints were a reflection of his flawless talent and innovative eye for design.

McQueen was, and still is, irreplaceable. He was a designer that could express emotion with a single cut or print and therefore he never should be replaced, but remembered. It is now that his final collection has been shown he will be able to properly rest in peace, it is just a tragic shame Lee is not here to reap the reward and praise received.
