Antony Price, the British fashion designer responsible for some of the looks favoured by David Bowie, Roxy Music and Queen Camilla, among others, has died at the age of 80.

Price was known for her sculptural silhouettes and dramatic styles, including the pastel suits featured in the rock band Duran Duran’s music video Rio.

The band released a Statement on social media He is remembered as “visionary” and a “kind, intelligent, and sharp-witted friend.”

Price’s death came less than a month after unveiling her latest collection in more than 30 years in London, where singer Lily Allen designed a dress inspired by the black velvet “Avenger Dress” worn by Diana, Princess of Wales.

A long-time collaborator of David Bowie, Price designed the jacket the singer wore for his As the World Falls Down music video in 1986.

His distinctive ability to mix men’s and women’s clothes, as well as his technical proficiency in shaping body-hugging looks, made him a “true original,” the British Fashion Council said.

In the 1990s, he began working for Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall, after she assumed the title, including several ensemble pieces for her US tour.

After a career spanning more than five decades, Price held her last show in London last month in collaboration with fashion brand 16Arlington.
