A shocking way to start off the week: beloved fashion designer and girlfriend to Mick Jagger, L'Wren Scott, was found dead this morning in her Manhattan apartment by her assistant. The NY Daily News reports that police sources said it is an apparant suicide.

L'Wren Scott, 47, was found hanging from a scarf on a doorknob at her 200 11th Ave. apartment this morning after Scott texted her assistant early this morning asking her to come over. When she arrived around 10 a.m., she discovered Scott and called 911.

Jagger made a statement through a spokesperson saying he is "completely shocked and devastated by the news" of her death.

No foul play is suspected and no suicide not has been found.

Scott started her career as a model in Paris after graduating high school, posing for high end labels like Thierry Mugler and Chanel. She then moved to California in the early '90s and became a successful stylist. Scott eventually launched her own fashion brand in 2006. Many high profile faces have been seen wearing her designs like First Lady Michelle Obama, Sarah Jessica Parker, Reese Witherspoon, Angelina Jolie and Nicole Kidman.
