Fashion has lost its visionary. He was the first to put women in pants, the first to put them in tuxedos, the first to put them in masculine clothes, and the first to employ black models. Women around the world owe Yves Saint Laurent a debt for revolutionising their wardrobes.
Rock and Roll has lost “the Originator”. The man who put the thump into the blues, master of the call and response and the creator of the “Bo Diddley Beat”.
