One of the most influential fashion designers of the 20th century, known for his iconic work with Chanel, Fendi, and his own eponymous label. He was born in Hamburg, Germany in 1933 and grew up in a wealthy family that encouraged his interest in fashion from a young age.

Lagerfeld began his fashion career in Paris in 1955, working as an assistant to Pierre Balmain. He quickly made a name for himself with his innovative designs and attention to detail, and in 1958, he was hired by Jean Patou as the artistic director of his brand. During this time, Lagerfeld gained a reputation for his bold and avant-garde designs, which drew inspiration from art, music, and popular culture.

In 1963, Lagerfeld joined the Italian fashion house Fendi, where he remained as creative director for over 50 years. He was instrumental in transforming the brand into a global powerhouse, introducing new designs and products that were both innovative and commercially successful. One of his most iconic contributions to the brand was the creation of the Fendi Baguette, a small, rectangular handbag that became a must-have accessory for fashion-forward women around the world.

But it was Lagerfeld's work with Chanel that truly cemented his place in fashion history. In 1983, he was hired by the brand's owner, Alain Wertheimer, to revive the iconic French label, which had fallen

out of favor with consumers in the 1970s. Lagerfeld's vision for Chanel was bold and ambitious, combining the brand's signature elements - such as the tweed suit, the quilted handbag, and the interlocking C logo - with modern and edgy designs that appealed to a new generation of customers.

He was the inspiration for several of Lagerfeld´s collections. In 2012, the designer, being the creative director at Chanel presented a collection inspired by the color of Choupete´s eyes. The 150 Shades of Byle collection

Under Lagerfeld's leadership, Chanel became one of the most successful and influential fashion brands in the world, with a global reach and a loyal following among celebrities and fashion insiders. He was a master of marketing and branding, creating elaborate runway shows and iconic advertising campaigns that captured the imagination of the public.

Lagerfeld's personal style was just as iconic as his designs. He was known for his signature look, which included a high-collared white shirt, black sunglasses, and a silver ponytail. He was also famous for his wit and humor, often making provocative and controversial statements that kept him in the spotlight.

Lagerfeld passed away in 2019 at the age of 85, leaving behind a legacy that continues to inspire and influence fashion designers around the world. His impact on the fashion industry cannot be overstated - he was a true visionary who transformed the way we think about fashion, and his influence will be felt for generations to come.
