Memories Of Malcolm McLaren – Honeyee Feature

Memories Of Malcolm McLaren – Honeyee Feature

2009 didn’t seem like such a good year for talents, as we said
goodbye to the King of Pop, Michael Jackson, amongst many
others. While many embarked on this year hoping things might
be better, early in spring, the world lost its punk pioneer
and original agent provocateur, Malcolm McLaren.
On Apr 8, Malcolm McLaren lost his battle against
Mesothelioma (skin cancer), left us with memories and
a significant legacy.Malcolm McLaren, in his hey day,
is the man behind the punk movement, having established
the basis for the self-destructive Sex Pistols, and later on,
the New York Dolls. The man is not only known for his
contribution to music, but also to art, culture and fashion. 

A multi-talented man with a great eye, Malcolm McLaren
had a relationship with the queen designer of glam punk,
Vivienne Westwood, have a son, Joseph Corre, who is a
co-founder of racy lingerie label, Agent Provocateur.

In memory of and paying homage to Malcolm McLaren,
some of the greatest influencers and market makers of
today including Hiroshi Fujiwara, Paul Mittleman and
James Jebbia came together to share their memories of
the punk pioneer. Honeyee compiled the men’s stories into
a feature, so do please read on, and get to know the man
from an insider’s perspective. Perhaps, even after he has left us,
we will still be able to learn something new and exciting about
the man who has been more than a man,
as he is a movement all by himself.
