Karl For Ever



Yesterday,  at the Grand Palais in Paris Chanel & Fendi celebrated the life and legacy of the one and only, the greatest designer and visionary, Karl Lagerfeld. 

Models, designers, journalists and fashion editores together paid a respectful and beautiful tribute for Karl. 

Karl Lagerfelt will live forever not only in our hearts, but in all the details not only in fashion, but art, music and beyond. - Juliana Modine




"The many facets of this extraordinary man were evoked through a tapestry of videos filmed throughout his life, interspersed with testimonials from people who knew him, as well as the generous “live” contributions of highly talented actors, musicians, dancers who interpreted some of the music and literature Karl loved so much." – Chanel
