Karl Lagerfeld: 10 of the designer’s best collections – RUSSH
There was no one like Lagerfeld. This has been well documented by those closest to him throughout the span of his 70-year career. Polarizing and eternally transformative, Karl Lagerfeld’s legacy is one that will transcend time for eras to come. Best known as the creative director of Chanel for three decades, the designer, writer, photographer and director began his high-profile fashion tenure at Fendi in the 60s and Chloe in the 70s.
There are many moments that stand out to us throughout his sprawling career. Summing them up is a near impossible feat, but in honour of the Met Gala dedicating its 2023 theme to his legacy, we’re attempting to round up 10 collections that stand as examples as some of the best work from Karl Lagerfeld.
He was one of the most decorated designers in history, with a “renaissance-like” intelligence and a knack for revitalising and reinventing House codes for the modern consumer. Who could forget his countless Chanel bride looks? Or when he turned the Grand Palais into a beach? Below, we round up our most iconic Karl Lagerfeld runway moments over the decades.
