C’est sur des notes de musique classique qu’ont été célébrées hier les obsèques du couturier Yves Saint Laurent décédé dimanche soir (voir notre édition). Sur les bancs de l’église Saint-Roch de Paris, les plus belles griffes du monde de la mode étaient présentes : Kenzo Takada, Hubert de Givenchy, Christian Lacroix, John Galliano, Vivienne Westwood, Valentino, Jean-Paul Gaultier, ou encore Inès de la Fressange. L’actrice Catherine Deneuve, grande amie d'YSL avait également fait le déplacement, tout comme Nicolas Sarkozy et sa femme Carla Bruni, accueillis par Pierre Bergé, le compagnon du défunt couturier. Parmi les autres personnalités présentes, l'écrivain Bernard-Henri Levy et son épouse Arielle Dombasle, Laetitia Casta, Claire Chazal, Bernadette Chirac, Bertrand Delanoë et la ministre de la Culture Christine Albanel. Sur le parvis de l’église où un écran géant avait été installé, plus d’un millier d’anonymes ont également souhaité rendre un dernier hommage au "prince de la mode". F.G.
