Alexander McQueen’s Ashes Have Been Buried at Kilmuir in Scotland

It has been just four months since British fashion designer Alexander McQueen was found dead in his luxury apartment, but the fashion industry and those who appreciate and love it will continue to mourn the death of the amazing talent that was Alexander McQueen.

Britain’s Daily Mail reported not long after McQueen was found that he had hanged himself just days after the death of his mother and almost three years after the May 2007 suicide of his close friend Isabella Blow, who was the person to discover McQueen and launch his career.

WWD reported today that the ashes of the late fashion designer were buried on May 29th at Kilmuir, located on Scotland’s Isle of Skye.

His family issued a statement, saying that it was McQueen’s final request to be buried at Kilmuir and that he “cherished the times that he was able to spend on the Isle of Skye — he enjoyed the beauty, peace and tranquility.”
