Remembering the late, great Marie Seznec (2 April 1958 – 12 November 2015).

Model, muse and director of Christian Lacroix's haute couture salon. And an absolute original.

An absolute original for sure. In addition, she was his fitting model and every piece of clothing he designed fit her exactly, and his store mannequins were Marie too.  Parfaitement merveilleux! THANK YOU for the thread!
