Influential French designer Yves Saint Laurent died Sunday evening at the age of 71. Laurent passed away in Paris after slipping into a coma Wednesday evening. Sources said the designer fell ill last week.

Laurent’s longtime partner Pierre Berge confirmed his death to French news chain LCI. Berge said Laurent “knew that he had revolutionized fashion, that he had revolutionized the second half of the 20th century. His designs accompanied the evolution of women.”
