The fashion and entertainment world is in turmoil after the news of style maven L’Wren Scott’s death. The longtime girlfriend of Rolling Stones crooner, Mick Jagger was found hanging from a scarf in her Manhattan apartment.
A spokesperson for Jagger expressed his grief and devastation in a released statement to USA, Today. The Rolling Stones are currently on tour in Australia.
Thanks to her lithe frame and striking looks, Scott started off as a model and then eventually became a designer. Her clientele boasted an array of A-listers including Nicole Kidman, Angelina Jolie, Amy Adams, Penelope Cruz, and even First Lady, Michelle Obama.
Just the past December, Scott celebrated a much-heralded collaboration with Banana Republic. The limited collection sold out almost immediately due to overwhelming response from fans, who were clearly swept away by the attainable factor.
As the stunning news spreads, tweets from celebrities and colleagues, who are struggling to make sense of the tragedy are pouring in. From Bette Midler to Marc Jacobs, those who knew the forty-nine year old are paying tribute.
It’s a sad day indeed!
