“Yves Saint Laurent in Twilight”

From today’s Page Six:
Fashionistas are buzzing over the poor health of Yves Saint Laurent. The retired king of couture was in a wheelchair last week when he made a rare public appearance at the exhibit of his theatrical work at the Fondation Pierre Bergé in his old headquarters on the Avenue Marceau. “He was pale and his face was swollen and puffy,” observed our spy. “He really didn’t look well at all.” Saint Laurent, 71, has a history of health problems. He retired from his couture house in 2002 and retreated to his homes in Paris and Marrakech. Gucci Group now owns the ready-to-wear label Yves Saint Laurent Rive Gauche.
While he has been retired for a few years now, we wish Yves Saint Laurent were still designing; he’s always been one of our favorite designers. Otherwise we wish him well and the best of health!
