Isabella Blow dies of cancer
The fashion industry lost one of its biggest characters today, as stylist Isabella Blow died of ovarian cancer at the age of 48. She was the woman who discovered Alexander McQueen, Philip Treacy (whose hats she was rarely seen without), Sophia Dahl and Stella Tennant, as well as one of the most vibrant women on the London fashion scene.
Her death at such a young age is a real tragedy: goodbye, Isabella, you will be sorely missed…
