RIP YSL

Yves Saint Laurent died, and while it's a pretty huge deal as far as French culture goes, I realized in reading the obit that his muse has what it is maybe the best name ever: Loulou de la Falaise. (I'm into fashion enough to know a thing or two about YSL but not so much that I'd heard of her before). A cute but insouciant first name. Last name indicates breeding, but literally means "of the cliff."
