Laura "Luann" Bambrough (April 28, 1964 – March 17, 2014), known professionally as L'Wren Scott,[1][2] was an American model, fashion designer, and stylist.

Scott started her career as a model in Paris before moving to California and styling movie stars such as Madonna and Julia Roberts.

In 2006, she launched the first of her fashion collections, characterised by sumptuous femininity combined with unconventional touches, aimed at establishing a well-defined silhouette.

She issued regular tips on etiquette, known as "L'Wrenisms", and extended her range into shoes, handbags, glasses, makeup and perfume.

[8] According to the other version, Scott moved to Los Angeles one and a half years after graduating from high school, where she was spotted by a scout with agency ties in Paris and began calling herself "L'Wren".

[11] Scott moved to California in the early 1990s and established herself as a stylist, initially in collaboration with photographer Herb Ritts, and later with Helmut Newton, Karl Lagerfeld and Mario Sorrenti.

One of her early assignments was an ad campaign for Elizabeth Taylor's White Diamonds, eventually the world's top-selling celebrity fragrance.

She designed costumes for such films as Diabolique (1996 remake), Ocean's Thirteen, Eyes Wide Shut, and Shine a Light, a documentary by Martin Scorsese about The Rolling Stones, with Mick Jagger, with whom she had been romantically linked since 2001.

Net-A-Porter wrote that her designs have a "seductive, old-world feel: super-feminine silhouettes; rigorous cuts; nipped-in waists; pencil skirts, high-collared blouses; elegant, long-sleeved dresses.

Sarah Jessica Parker, Angelina Jolie, Nicole Kidman,[23] Penélope Cruz, and Amy Adams have all worn Scott's dresses to the Academy Awards.

[24] The former First Lady of France Carla Bruni-Sarkozy wore Scott's designs, as did Naomi Campbell, Marion Cotillard, Reese Witherspoon, Christina Hendricks, Jennifer Lopez, and Sandra Bullock.

[25] In 2010, Scott collaborated with Lancôme to create a capsule collection for the 2010 holiday season[26] featuring a lipstick in her signature bordeaux color.

Photographer Mario Testino shot the campaign, which featured model Daria Werbowy wearing an outfit designed by Scott.

[36] The collection was her first foray into an affordable line of ready-to-wear, and included scarves, jeans, purses, sweaters, pajamas, and cocktail dresses.

[39] Scott collaborated with makeup artist and brand Bobbi Brown to create lip glosses, eyeshadows and cheek color, which came out in 2014.

[45][46] Upon learning of her death, Jagger wrote on his website and on his official Facebook page: I am still struggling to understand how my lover and best friend could end her life in this tragic way.

[54] In January 2015, it was announced that Jagger had created a three-year scholarship fund in her name for fashion design students at the London-based school Central Saint Martins.
