    Rest In Peace, Yves Saint Laurent

    We are sad to announce that legendary Yves Saint Laurent has passed away. The 71-year-old French designer who had been battling brain cancer died in his home in Paris. Yves started his career at the early age of seventeen and has grown to become one of the most influential fashion designers in the world. He began designing at the house of Dior at the early age of 21 and went on to creating his own label YSL, in 1962. He created numerous iconic fashion trends including Le Smoking suit, also known as the women's tuxedo. Rest in peace Yves Saint Laurent. We will miss you dearly. Please take a moment to view our tribute to the famed designer. Source

    I have tied a pink and orange YSL silk ribbon around my wrist in honor of the great Yves Saint Laurent. His impact on fashion, haute couture as well as pret-a-porter, is legendary. With the creation of Le Smoking he became such a remarkable force in changing the female silhoutte, thereby empowering womankind. RIP.

    My husband and I were talking about this last night, if there were and movie on the life of Yves Saint Laurent who should play him. We both commented that in certain pictures, with the shaggy hair, he looks a lot like Patrick Swayze.

    It is a great loss. RIP
