1933 to 2019

The man behind the Kaiser

Karl Lagerfeld was born in Hamburg in 1933 and moved to Paris in 1952, launching a career that spanned more than six decades. He became creative director of Chanel in 1983, reviving a house many considered finished, while also leading Fendi and his own eponymous label. He died in Paris in February 2019, having reshaped fashion until his final years.

I design like I breathe. You don't ask to breathe. It just happens.
