Sad word has reached us that Yves Saint-Laurent, regarded as perhaps THE finest designer of the 20th century, has passed away in Paris.
Saint-Laurent began his illustrious fashion career at the house of Dior but started the YSL label in 1962, with the financial help of his longtime business partner and then-lover Pierre Berge.
Among his fashion achievements include Le Smoking, a chic tuxedo silhouette for women. He's also known as the first designer to use black models in his runway shows.
He will be missed.
