DEAD GRANDMOTHER SCORES 29 POINTS
French fashion icon Yves Saint Laurent, widely hailed as one of the greatest designers of the 20th century, died Sunday in Paris. He was 71.
"Yves Saint Laurent died Sunday at 11:10 pm," announced his foundation, the Pierre-Berge-Saint Laurent Foundation.
The reclusive French maestro, who had retired from haute couture in 2002 after four decades at the top of his trade, had been ill for some time.
Saint Laurent's longtime business partner Pierre Berge, hailed him as a fashion revolutionary.
"He knew perfectly well that he had revolutionised haute couture, the important place he occupied in the second half of the 20th century," Berge said on LCI television.
