Muse
Few people fit the description of style icon as completely as Loulou de la Falaise who passed away today at age 63.
Always impeccably stylish, she was a unique beauty with wide eyes, an impish grin and effortless elegance.
With her individual style usually consisting of lots of layered baubles, a timelessly chic wavy bob, skinny pants and perfect blouses, she was friend and muse to YSL who credited her with inspiring his tuxedo jackets.
A remarkably fashionable woman, who was after all, the daughter of a model and count, she also notably joyful. In nearly every photograph she is smiling or throwing her head back in laughter.
If anyone lived the idea of growing old gracefully it was her and I think that constant smile had something to do with it.
But what do you think?
