In 1954, he was awarded first prize for his design of a coat at the French International Wool Secretariat (now known as the International Woolmark Prize). The next year, in 1955, he was hired by Pierre Balmain, who was the one who put his design into production. Here we will discuss about Who is Karl Lagerfeld and many other things related to him.

By the 1980s, many people believed that the Coco Chanel fashion house had faded into obscurity after the death of its namesake designer. However, the company’s apparel line was completely transformed after Karl was hired there in 1983.

How Is Karl Lagerfeld Connected To The Met Gala? 

It is hardly surprising that the Costume Institute Benefit would choose to honor him as one of the most influential people in the fashion industry. As reported by Vogue, the memorial ball would pay tribute to the late designer “who was a regular attendee at the Metropolitan Museum of Art Costume Institute.” There will be no shortage of brand tributes at the 2023 Met Gala, as celebrities in attendance will have their pick of many different labels.

His Estate And Possessions After His Death

Lagerfeld said in his will that he wanted to be cremated and that his ashes be scattered with those of his mother and his cat, Choupette. According to reports, Lagerfeld’s estate includes a nine-bedroom flat on the Left Bank of Paris from the 18th century, as well as seven other properties and a $31 million condominium in Monaco.

Although Choupette was mentioned as one of Lagerfeld’s six beneficiaries in his will, no one else had received any of the money as of June 2020. Sotheby’s announced in March 2021 that it will be selling some of Lagerfeld’s belongings at an auction in Monaco. In June of 2019, at the Grand Palais in Paris, 2,500 people attended “Karl For Ever,” a celebration of Lagerfeld’s life.
