Legendary Bijan Pakzad Dies This Morning

 

Fashion Icon and Beverly Hills Legend Bijan Pakzad died this morning at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. The 67-year-old suffered from a stroke Thursday evening and was sent to the medical center where he remained in critical condition until his passing.

"It is with great grief and sadness that I announce the passing of my dear friend Bijan Pakzad," former Beverly Hills Mayor Jimmy Delshad said on his Facebook page at 11 a.m. "He was an exceptional person and he will be greatly missed."

Bijan is best known for fashion and perfume expertise. He owned Bijan, a men's designer clothing store on Rodeo Drive, whose website boasts being "the most expensive in the world!" According to Bijan's website, what separated him from other designers was his attention to detail and outstanding quality.

Bijan said on his website, "The world said to conform, the world said to settle for less, the world said to compromise and no one would know... so I made my own world."
