    The end of an era, and a true loss.

    I’ll miss the man, but am comforted to know that his style legacy and design principles will live on! Au Revoir Monsieur Saint Laurent.

    His impact in fashion will long live on. The first “adult”perfume I ever wore was his Rive Gauche. Hmm, and I came really close to buying a YSL scarf yesterday.

    Very sad, although I’m sure Ossie is having a word with him right now about this whole ‘first person to put women in trousers’ thing ;)

    RIP YSL

    It’s sad to see a champion of women’s fashion evolution go at such an early age.

    I’ve often thought, “How did that person who just died look naked?” Thank you, WendyB.
