Bjork has posted a poignant, poetic tribute to Alexander 'Lee' McQueen on her website.

The influential fashion designer, who died last week, designed the cover to Bjork's 1997 studio album 'Homogenic' and directed the video to the single 'Alarm Call'.

Under the title 'In Memorium', the singer wrote:

dear lee

i can´t stop thinking how both fierce and feeble you are

it is difficult to grasp this

my condolences go out to your family and friends and all your team

who must be all trying to fathom this

i would like to thank you for all your inspiration

it was so important to me to get to work with you and your team

a real mashup of fertile minds

it was vital to my development

i´m grateful

and all the warmth all around you and your mom

björk
and her team
