PARIS (AP) — France’s Nobel economics laureate Philippe Aghion reflected Monday on the creative roots that shaped his award-winning ideas about innovation and growth.

Aghion paid homage to his family lineage, particularly his mother, Gaby Aghion , who founded the fashion house Chloé , after he was awarded the Nobel memorial prize in economics on Monday. The 69-year-old economics professor's mother was credited with pioneering Parisian ready-to-wear as a freer, more feminine alternative to haute couture.
