Karl Lagerfeld

There’s a reason why Karl Otto Lagerfeld is looked up to as ‘Kaiser’. He was one of Fashion’s most decorated designers, legendary for his cutting-edge pop-cultural aesthetic injected with cultural and historical references. In addition to his eponymous label he was creative director of Chanel and head designer of fur and ready-to-wear at Fendi. His visionary talent further expanded beyond fashion to include illustration- photography- styling and publishing. And he was celebrated for his personal style: white ponytail, white button- down shirt, starched detachable collars, black sunglasses and fingerless gloves!
