What's in a name...

I thought I would share some insight into the name Loulou & Maxime...

The name Loulou & Maxime is inspired by the Maxime de la Falaise.  Maxime was born in 1922 and was a 1950s fashion icon, modelactress and most importantly (in my opinion) muse to Yves Saint Laurent.  She was also a cookbook author and food maven, and occasionally a clothing designer and as an interior designer who decorated the homes of friends.  Her daughter, Loulou is also a designer and muse to Yves Saint Laurent.
