Loulou de la Falaise musa del diseñador Yves Saint Laurent nos dejaba esta misma semana a los 63 años tras una larga enfermedad. Todo un mito en el mundo de la moda desde que se cruzó en el camino del diseñador. Su historia con el conocido modisto se remontaba a 1968, en un encuentro casual en París a través de un amigo común, y cuatro años después se consolidó cuando comenzó a trabajar para él y se convirtió en una de sus colaboradoras más cercanas, encargada de la creación de los sombreros, joyas y de su alta costura y prêt-à-porter colecciones y la producción de hasta 2.000 piezas de joyería al año hasta 2002, cuando se retiró. Trabajo con él mas de tres décadas, más tarde colaboró con Oscar de la Renta en sus colecciones de joyas. Su diseño final una línea de joyería de fantasía que creó durante el verano a la venta el próximo mes en la tienda en el Jardín Majorelle en Marrakech. Ya haré un post con sus colecciones en breve!
Una mujer con coraje y eterna, siempre decía que consideraba esencial reinventarse, y ella lo llevó a cabo siempre.
