Kim Kardashian says there's 'no one like you' as she pays tribute to Thierry Mugler

Kim Kardashian was heartbroken as she paid tribute to the iconic fashion designer Thierry Mugler.

The fashion visionary died at the age of 73, with the news being confirmed on his Instagram page.

Born Manfred Thierry Mugler, the icon dressed the likes of Beyonce, Lady Gaga, Diana Ross and Kim - who wore his design at the Met Gala in 2019.

"Manfred Thierry Mugler," she began her post along with a broken heart emoji.

"My heart breaks. There’s no one like you! Your vision, your transformations, your magic! I am so honored to have known you, spent time with you and be a muse for you.

"There was so much more for you to show the world and that we had planned to do together, but you already gave us so much."

She continued: "I will never forget our time together around the world and learning from the master himself on what couture really meant! You always said beauty will save the world - and you really believed it was a better place because of the beauty all around!

"Thank you for the beauty. I love you so much. My condolences go to Manfred’s family, friends, JB and his incredible team - and everyone who loved him and who’s lives he has touched."

Along with the touching tribute, the Keeping Up With The Kardashians star shared a carousel of sweet snaps of her hanging out with Thierry and wearing his designs.

She also shared many iconic looks designed by Thierry, including a revealing black gown she wore to the Hollywood Beauty Awards as well as a magical two-structured ensemble
