Vivienne Westwood’s ex-lover, the Sex Pistol’s amazing manager, or fashion afficiando– no matter which way you remembered Malcolm McLaren– he was always considered an amazing artist, talent, and contributor to some of the coolest sh*t in the world. I was trying to avoid even thinking about this yesterday when I heard the news, but for the sake of respecting his legacy, we dedicate this post to him. R.I.P– another great Brit legend gone…..

Malcolm McLaren, an impresario, recording artist and fashion designer who as manager of the Sex Pistols played a decisive role in creating the British punk movement, died on Thursday in Switzerland. He was 64.

The cause was mesothelioma, a cancer of the linings around organs, said Young Kim, his companion of many years. She said he had been under treatment at a Swiss hospital. The couple had a home in Paris. — NY Times

You might be gone in the physical, but you’re a legend and those never die. R.I.P.
