An icon has passed away.

   Lagerfeld was a fashion designer, photographer, caricaturist, creative director of the House of Chanel and Fendi in Paris.

   Karl inspired thousands of designers and fashionistas around the world.

   He became an icon in the fashion industry, especially the caricature of his face.

   If it wasn’t for him, the brands such as Chanel and Fendi wouldn’t be where they’re at today.

   He made sure every single runway, design, and photoshoot went perfectly as he planned.

   His designs, his elegance, and his innovation have taken him places every designer dreams of.

   Karl Lagerfeld was best friends with models, fellow designers and Anna Wintour.

   He created his own brand called “Karl Lagerfeld,” a brand of clothes, shoes and perfumes.

   The fashion shows he created were undescriptively amazing, such as a fake beach, a fake forest and much more.

   Karl had a cat, Choupette, that was his most loyal friend.

   It is said that Choupette is the successor of Lagerfeld’s inheritance, $195 million.

   The successor of the House of Chanel and Fendi is Virginie Viard.

On March 5, 2019, Chanel made a final show saying goodbye to the legend.
