Viva Saint Laurent!

It's always sad to hear of the passing of an icon in our business, and Yves Saint Laurent is no exception. He was such an incredibly significant contributor to 20th century fashion, turning ready-to-wear into a viable business model, putting pants on women in such an elegant and sophisticated manner, splashing a rainbow of colors across what was sometimes a rather staid industry...and always practicing his craft with the precision of a surgeon.

If heaven were a casino, you can bet there's one hell of a game of Texas hold 'em going on right now with some of the greats...Avedon, Ritts, Newton, Izzy Blow, and now Saint Laurent. Where have all the cowboys gone?
