Washington: Celebrated fashion and perfume designer, Paco Rabanne passed away in France at the age of 88.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, a US-based entertainment portal, his death was confirmed by the Spanish group Puig, which controls the Paco Rabanne fashion house and fragrance business.
“Paco Rabanne made transgression magnetic. Who else could induce fashionable Parisian women to clamor for dresses made of plastic and metal? Who but Paco Rabanne could imagine a fragrance called Calandre — the word means ‘automobile grill,’ you know — and turn it into an icon of modern femininity?” said Jose Manuel Albesa, president of Puig’s fashion and beauty division, reported The Hollywood Reporter.
