From the NY Times:

So sorry to hear of her passing. I loved her ethereal fantasy dresses and gowns back in "the day". And her hair!

We are losing so many great designers this past decade.

She did have amazing hair.

Loved her clothes.
RIP Sonia.

Oh my! Yes, so many great designers are leaving us...

When I'm lucky enough to find something of hers, I have such a hard time parting with it!

I just saw this on the morning news.....very sad news. In the last photo in the article, you can tell that she has Parkinson's, a very debilitating and cruel disease. What an interesting life she had and no formal training!

I do love her clothes...just put one of the sweaters today on the new listings here.
She did get to live a good long life!
