Thierry Mugler, a fragrance and fashion designer known for his flamboyant creations, has died at the age of 73. According to a post from Mugler’s Instagram page, the designer passed on Sunday January 23, 2022.
 
In the 1970s, Mugler launched his eponymous fashion house; and quickly rose to prominence in the following decades for his avant-garde, architectural, hyperfeminine and theatrical approach to haute couture.
 
Mugler was one of the first designers to champion diversity in his runway shows, which often tackled racism and ageism, and incorporated non-traditional models such as Drag Queens, Porn-stars, and Transgender women. In 2002, he retired from the brand, and returned in 2013 as the creative adviser.
 
Mugler also had a popular perfume line. In 1992, he released his first scent “Angel,” helping to forge a link between luxury fashion and fragrance. Mugler’s newest fragrance, Angel Muse, was released in 2015 and Angel Nova was released in June 2020.
 
Besides fashion and fragrance, Mugler also created films and photographs, and was a dancer, acrobat and an avid body-builder.
