Lady Gaga helped raise thousands for the Isabella Blow Foundation in 2012 when Daphne Guinness auctioned some of her clothes at CHRISTIES. Lady Gaga is inspired by her. She isn't claiming to be her. To totally different people but with same love for fashion.
I don't understand this bitterness towards Lady Gaga. She was clearly inspired by Isabella. What is wrong with that? Isn't it what this is all about?? The ability to truly inspire and influence through your work? This is powerful & rewarding for artists as it is legacy.
toyin hannah she brokered his deal with Gucci but when that deal was finalized he excluded her from the whole thing and basically set tone for her depression and artistic deprivation later in life 💁🏼♀️
Ming Quan Chen Wu that is gossip not true at all listen to Philip and others that where friends with them and they all say they loved each other. Plus Gucci Nd Tom Ford where the true thing that destroyed McQueen!
@@renatoamaraldemiranda2558 Yes, they loved each other yet he was entirely cruel to her. She adored him and championed him even at his worst moments. He excluded her from his team when Gucci acquired him, knowing that it would break her. He was extremely damaged and in pain, as people sometimes do, he lashed out at those he loved with brutality. He was in severe mental pain, there is no judgement but we should be as honest about his cruelty as we are about his love and brilliance. We are all human.
Isabella only received the appreciation she deserved after her death. It’s fucked up because she was looked at as this outsider and publications disappointed her when she needed help the most and media is always so hypocritical
Didn’t Alexander McQueen dismiss her influence once re ran into some financial backing? Sounds like he is a piece of trash and she was absolutely amazing.
I don’t know that he was “a piece of trash,” but she might had been quite overwhelming too. Creative people need their time and space and they are prone to moodiness. She probably needed him all the time!
@@solobano570 well, after all of her help was used, he then abused meth, and every other illicit drug, and then descended into a very disgusting life! But possibly like him, you find it easy to find excuses to dismiss those whose backs you climbed over as they lifted you to the top ! I myself am loyal to the loyal till the end!
Blow, Mc Queen and Treacy were good friends of Gaga and she was obviously inspired bye Blow. She didn't took her style, Philip made hats for gaga too. They both shared the same love for fashion
Both of them gone too soon, unfortunate they did not have a support, in their lives, on their career to sustain them in permanent strength. Clear, they each had fans, friends and family connection, yet they still had the same end of life story of sorts. A wonder if they had encountered one individual or a different group of individuals at any point in the experience if it might’ve altered/changed the end, for them, prolonged their journey through a different perspective, a positive outlook, if they’d been anchored, rooted in their own inner strength, given a purpose to grasp onto with such a firm hold, they simply could not have been shaken. Each time, it seems the same as that, any time an individual does themselves in/commits suicide. Highest hopes at any point, they found/find themselves resting in peace.
Not really. That way you have control - when you're ready to go, you pull the plug. I think it's far worse when someone else takes your life, or the life of someone you love.
Alek Wek should have been #2 Adut Akech should have been on this list I disagree with featuring white women (white models) as part of Out of Africa series. It should be strictly Black/African models only. VideoFashion should have series about Black American models not Black models from Africa or Caribbean; only Black American women who was born & raised in USA Black American Heritage i.e. Tyra Banks, Beverly Johnson, Chanel Iman, Veronica Webb, Karen Alexander, Beverly Peele, Jasmine Tookes, Pat Cleveland, Naomi Sims, and Donyale Luna. It should not feature Black models who are not Black American i.e. Naomi Campbell, Jourdan Dunn, Joan Smalls, Winnie Harlow; although the black, they are not Black Americans. The series should discuss how they broke racial barriers from Civil Rights to Now.

Isabella was such a fashion icon. She will be forever missed.
I actually just knew about her and im so fucking sad she is not here anymore, she was such a piece of art, AMAZING!
“Fashion is a vampiric thing, it’s the hoover on your brain. That’s why I wear the hats, to keep everyone away from me.”
- Isabella Blow
Thank feck she has gone to the big Milliner in the sky
@@Subtronik We see what we are!
She was deeply unhappy & suffered terribly from depression. A lovely, talented individual.
I so much hope she and Alexander will be having fun in heaven together...
F Alexander he stabbed her in the back he was a piece of shit of a friend.
Wow. She seems like a one-of-a-kind. I want to find out more about her.

🙄🙄🙄🙄
Kind of really tragic. Money does'nt buy happiness neither does fame. Those 2 things most humans crave.
Friendship? After what he did to her?
he did what?

@@gvrnmnthooker_6398 He basically left her behind and then he payed her the treatment. When I read that I was like seriosly?? 😂🤦🏻♀️

Not being able to hav yor own baby breaks yor heart & you liv in mourning for the rest of yor life.
I loved her. I broke my feet too. I loved shoes...i get her😪😭
Mcqeen. Ian. What a creator. I have his work and i feel high every time i wear him
@@sophiamarquis is that your favourite 80s synth/pop band 😂
May her amazing soul rest forever soothed un the Heaven of God...
Alexander would be a nobody without Isabella help- but when he became rich and famous he ditched her like trash! I am sure that hurt her so much!
She was pretty in a vivacious way, like Liza Minnelli
What does Fashion mean to you?
"My Life."
I find this line the most haunting and wonderful as well.
Rest in Glorious Peace

Bravo!! This comment speaks to the true hypocrisy of these types of people.
Is it a dangerous place to get lost in?
I miss you so much Isabella
when was the first time you heard of her ?
so sad when someone takes their life.
Didn’t Alexander McQueen dismiss her influence once re ran into some financial backing? Sounds like he is a piece of trash and she was absolutely amazing.
Yes he did

I agree. He was a great designer, but as a person, he was a piece of work. Not to mention, he infected many men knowingly with Aids.
Anybody knows the music used in the video???
Did a blind person put on the red lipstick on her lips?
Geez 🤣😂
Wicked person
Philip Tracy is a god!
Taking that all into account. It's still sad.
Well Before Lady Gaga - no surprise LG loved Alexander McQueen also
ISABELLA
I miss our little chats. I think of you often. X
Isabella had such an interesting life and interesting style. What made so depressed that she'd want to permanently leave all of it?
Clinical depression. It sucks the meaning out of everything. Suicide is never logical.
Isabella, Lee Alexander McQueen, Lucy Ferry.....
lady gaga took her style
Blow, Mc Queen and Treacy were good friends of Gaga and she was obviously inspired bye Blow. She didn't took her style, Philip made hats for gaga too. They both shared the same love for fashion
She was inspired but I don't think it was necessarily just Izzy but appreciated her

I couldn't get a seat to his show,but I bought everything... Wtf
great video...but Ingrid Sischy is just a lifetime hanger on.
nothing to add to the conversation
this womam had fashion designer face, idk how to explain.
To mention lady gaga next to Isabella blow is really weird. Gaga is nobody just a thief of style.
😞
Isabella Blew
She played a huge part of lees fame and was also the down fall of McQueen
0:54 no joke Gaga looks just like her!
