Celebrities and fashion industry figures have taken to Instagram to honor the late fashion designer. Actress Tracee Ellis Ross shared a video of herself and her mother Diana Ross walking in Mugler’s fashion show in the early 1990s with the caption: “Thierry Mugler was a defining force in fashion. Even his archive collection today seems futuristic. He was a true dreamer. He designed for a future where women were in charge and on top. His clothes were sculptural, sexy and fierce.
”Burberry chief creative officer and designer Riccardo Tisci shared videos of Mugler’s shows and photos of himself with the designer with the caption: “Lately I’ve been losing too many people that were close to me. Thierry, you are definitely one of them. You started as a hero, my deepest inspiration and the one that showed the world how to be inclusive in every sense throughout your art and genius.
