Thierry Mugler, who is widely known as an iconic French fashion designer, has died.
On Mugler’s official page, an Instagram was posted on Sunday confirming the tragic news. It included a photo of nothing but a blank square, with a caption that read, “#RIP We are devastated to announce the passing of Mr. Manfred Thierry Mugler on Sunday, January 23rd, 2022. May his soul Rest In Peace.”
The same message was then repeated in French.
There are no details released saying the cause of his death, but it does seem like he passed suddenly and unexpectedly, TMZ reported.
