Yves St.Laurent Dead at 71

by Deborah on June 2nd, 2008

The fashion world is mourning the loss of style and fashion icon. Yves St.Laurent passed away last night at the age of 71 in Paris, France.

St.Laurent retired from the fashion world in 2002 and became somewhat of a recluse. It’s said he’s been ill for some time. He is survived by his long time partner, Pierre Berge. His burial is planned for Thursday.
