In June 2008 Yves Saint Laurent tragically lost his long battle with brain cancer and the world mourned the loss of one of its greatest couturiers. Saint Laurent was undoubtedly one of the most influential designers of our time. For over four decades, he intuitively understood what women desire. He was the man who put women in pantsuits, transparent blouses, ethnic looks and of course, the tuxedo – all fashion images that we take for granted now. For more than 40 years Yves Saint Laurent captivated the world. His creativity, elegance, and passion will be missed.
