Unveiling the Iconic Muse: Loulou de la Falaise and YSL in the 1970's

"Along with Betty Catroux, Loulou de La Falaise was one of Yves Saint Laurent's closest friends. Born in England in 1948, she was the daughter of a French aristocrat and an Anglo-Irish mother. She spent some time as a model before going on to design fabrics for Halston and working for the magazine Queen. When they met in 1968, Saint Laurent was immediately charmed by this bubbly young woman who dressed in flea-market finds, coming up with outfits that were both elegant and unique. Loulou began working at the studio as early as 1972 and remained at Saint Laurent's side for thirty years. She was quickly put in charge of accessories, which she liked to be colorful and voluminous. She also handled the knitwear line. After the haute couture house closed in 2002, Loulou continued to work in fashion and opened a boutique under her own name."

Hi❤️ I found exactly that information...as far as I understand, she was with him and inspired him throughout his life, starting in the 1970's...but the most influence (allegedly) was in the early 1980's.... Thanks for your comment, I will research this again and correct the inaccuracies….🕊️

Can we stop calling Loulou his ‘muse’ as if she was a passive inspiration and not a fashion designer in her own right? Quit erasing women from the history of fashion, while always elevating these men to some kind of god like status
