L’Wren later branched out into design. Some of her most famous creations have been worn by Madonna, Nicole Kidman, Naomi Cambell, Kate Moss, Sara Jessica Parker and, even, Michelle Obama.

As with all high profile celebrity deaths, there are at this stage, more questions than answers.

For the moment, the circumstances of L’Wren Scott’s alleged suicide are still a mystery.
