Very recently, the world has lost a venerated and well-liked mode icon. Karl Lagerfeld was a pioneer of the fashion industry itself and at age 85, he passed into the following world.
Stars like Naomi Campbell, Gigi Hadid and thousands of other supermodels have expressed their sadness on tragedy, sharing personal homage and experiences.
Many are simply at loss of words. Melania Trump has decided to share pictures, showing the sketch of Karl of a design he designs for his first appearance of the White House.
Mr. Lagerfeld emigrated from the pre-war German Germany as a teenager, starting as a design assistant for Balmain before continuing fashionable, like Chloe and Fendi in the 60's.
At the age of 21, the designer won the International Wool Secretariat for the best coat, sharing a victory with Yves Saint Laurent who won for the best dress design. I did not know, Yves and Karl would end up by rivals in their sector, both professionally and romantic.
However, it was of course his collaboration with Chanel who climbed him at the top of the fame whom we know today.
Everyone has recognized Karl of its infamous uniform - dark glasses, a silver ponytail wig and this notorious suit and tie, high overflowed.
This visionary has popularized high-low-fashionable collaborations, as his pairing with H & Mr. It was also known to support young and emerging designers - many of whom exploded, like Victoria Beckham.
And of course, no tribute to Lagerfeld would be completely tribute to his cat's choupe. While the reigning king once thought, "I'm like a caricature of myself and I like that." Choupette definitely plays a role in this statement!
Lagerfeld brought sophistication and class daily. He was famous for his hatred sweatpants and his incredible ability to inspire others and stay inspired continuously, throughout his career.
At the same time, the designer had his share of criticism, as when he said he was not favorable to the open attitude of Germany to migrants, nor how much he considered frivolous movement. METOO.
We can certainly count on a bio-peak or a documentary coming soon our way. All we know for the moment is that Paris and the world of fashion are guessed and devastated.
At the same time, there is also a place for a new knight in a brilliant armor to run and save the fashion world with their visionary grace. Until the next leader is less ambiguous, we cry Karl and the hole that he left in the world.
