Sunday night, June 1st marked a somber day in the fashion industry. Yves Saint Laurent, who at the age of 22 took over the House of Dior following Christian Dior's death in 1957, died at the age of 71 in his aparment in Paris, on sunday night.
Hailed as one of the most influential designers of the second half of the 20th century, Saint Laurent has had an incalculable influence on the way modern women dress. The French fashion designer once famously remarked, "I have often said that I wish I had invented blue jeans: the most spectacular, the most practical, the most relaxed and nonchalant. They have expression, modesty, sex appea, simplicity -- all I hope for in my clothes." Those words embody YSL's aesthetic - simple and elegant, just like Runwaydreamz.
That is why we choose jeans. Speaking about inspiration today, we mourn the loss of Yves Saint Laurent, but thank him for all that he gave us. He will always be remembered.
