Focus on: Karl Lagerfeld


Karl Lagerfeld (born Karl Otto Lagerfeldt on 10 September 1933 in Hamburg) is a German fashion designer, artist and photographer based in Paris. He has collaborated on a variety of fashion and art related projects, most notably as head designer and creative director for the fashion house Chanel. Lagerfeld has his own label fashion house, as well as the Italian house Fendi.

Karl Lagerfeld (rođen kao Karl Otto Lagerfeldt 10. septembra 1933. godine u Hamburgu) je nemački modni dizajner, umetnik i fotograf stacioniran u Parizu. Učestvovao je u raznim modnim i umetničkim projektima, najčešće kao glavni dizajner i kreativni direktor za modnu kuću Chanel. Lagerfeld ima brend pod svojim imenom, takođe radi i za italijansku kuću Fendi.

In 1955, at the age of 22, Lagerfeld was awarded a position as an apprentice at Pierre Balmain after winning second place, behind Yves Saint-Laurent, in a competition for a coat sponsored by the International Wool Secretariat. He told a reporter a few years later, "I won on coats, but actually I like designing coats least of all. What I really love are little black dresses."

Kada je imao 22 godine, 1955. godine, Lagerfeldu je dodeljen položaj šegrta u kući Pierre Balmain nakon što je osvojio drugo mesto, iza Yves Saint-Laurenta, u takmičenju dizajniranja kaputa koje je sponzorisao Međunarodni Sekretarijat za Vunu. Nekoliko godina kasnije, rekao je reporteru, "Pobedio sam na kaputima, ali zapravo najmanje od svega volim da dizajniram kapute. Ono što zaista volim su male crne haljine."

Indeed, during his multiple decade lasting career, Karl Lagerfeld not only pushed the boundaries of photography and fashion, he also had the talent to express a woman's beauty through simplicity.

Zaista, tokom svoje višedecenijske karijere, Karl Lagerfeld nije samo pomerao granice u fotografiji i modi, već je imao i talenta da istakne žensku lepotu kroz jednostavnost.

    The idea of hiding my face its because I want to share my style and my outfits but I want to give protagonism to them, not to me! ;) In fact, the drawing it's a picture of my face that I draw myself, so I'm not really hiding it but cartoonizing it! hehe. I don't know, maybe one day I'll reveal my face, but for the moment I'm happy posting this way... :). Hope to read more comments from you! ;)
