He was one of a kind, the so-called "King of cling" has died at the age of 77, breaking the heart of many of his famous clients and admirers, who voiced their heartfelt condolences on social media. Azzedine Alaïa was a self-taught and self-made fashion designer who followed his own rules, oblivious to the way big fashion houses operate, and running his label much more as a salon. He was kind and incredibly talented and will be deeply missed!
