Elaine Wynn, the co-founder of Mirage Resorts and Wynn Resorts, billionaire art collector and philanthropist, has died.

She was born in New York City and raised in Miami Beach, but it was Las Vegas where Wynn found a longtime home — for herself, her investments and her philanthropy.

It’s a tough time to sell luxe, but as Encore and its shops open, Steve Wynn’s wife is again poised to leave her style imprint.

She and husband Steve Wynn — the couple married twice and divorced for good in 2010 — moved there in 1967, using the money from Steve Wynn’s family bingo parlors to invest in the Frontier Hotel.

Elaine Wynn infused her touch of glamour on the resorts, setting the tone for luxury mega-resorts.
