Yves Saint Laurent died Sunday, June 1, at his home in Paris. He was 71.In his own words-
"Fashion was not only supposed to make women beautiful, but to reassure them, to give them confidence, to allow them to come to terms with themselves."
Saint Laurent retired in 2002 saying that he could no longer relate to the contemporary world of fashion.
"I've known fear and terrible solitude," he said. "Tranquilizers and drugs, those phony friends. The prison of depression and hospitals. I've emerged from all this, dazzled but sober."
To a true creator, may u still influence the designers of today and tomorrow.

p.s. he was the first designer to include black women in his runway show. Truly groundbreaking in worlds far beyond fashion.....
