Biography of Karl Lagerfeld

Karl Otto Lagerfeld (Karl Otto Lagerfeld) - now a famous and world famous couturier and photographer claims to have been born between 1933 and 1938 on September 10 in Hamburg. But in the registration book the entry was made by the early version, and the designer himself promised that he would provide the journalists with the necessary documents confirming this error.

Karl Lagerfeld appeared in a wealthy family and was the only child in this marriage. My father was a bank employee, and my mother, Frau Lagerfeld, was a real aristocrat with an exquisite taste, but at the same time she was a tough person. Although other sources say that the family of the world couturier was poor, and this story is just another celebrity fantasy.

As a child, Karl Lagerfeld had one dream - to grow up as soon as possible. And it really happened very soon. In 1952, when the boy was 14 years old, his family moved to Paris, where the current master entered the high fashion school at the Syndicate.

Lagerfeld always tried to be a leader in everything. In his favorite business, he invested himself 100%. All his time he spent for books, taught languages ​​and simulated clothes. And three years later, when the boy was 21, he won the competition, where he presented his creation in the form of a woolen coat , and received a cash prize for it. Unconventional design fell on the soul not only the jury, but all spectators. The victory in the competition and the talent of the artist gave him a job at the Fashion House Pierre Balmain. Having worked there for 4 years, he resigned.

At his next job, the designer was offered the job of art director in the already famous company Jean Patou. However, he did not stop here, and resigned, finally disappointed in fashion. These profound experiences led him to the idea of ​​moving to Rome, the fabulous city of Italy, where it was given more opportunity to do what he loved. Unceasingly honing their skills, Karl's work grew more and more independent every year. Working together with four brands, he created collections that were not similar to each other.

In 1974, he had already become a famous designer, he founded his brand and produced his first collection of clothes for men, which became a real breakthrough in high fashion. The Karl Lagerfeld Impression collection was so successful that a talented couturier was invited to work as a professor at the art school in Vienna.

After 9 years, in 1983 Karl Lagerfeld took the most important position in his life, becoming the chief designer of the Chanel brand. Today, some call him the most worthy successor to the great Coco.

Versatile and tireless

Karl Lagerfeld speaks of women as an opportunity to convey the mood of a new world. That is why many of his collections caused a scandalous reaction in the fashion world with his boldness and eccentricity. It was he who created mini skirts and short skirts. He opened the famous supermodel Claudia Schiffer, and stars such as Victoria Beckham, Cara Delevin, Keira Knightley, Ines de la Fressange, Carole Bouquet, Vanessa Paradis and many other beauties became real muzes for him.

Most people call Karl Lagerfeld gay, although he always kept silent about his orientation, however, as well as his personal life in general. In 1989, his partner Jacques de Bacher died of AIDS, after which the couturier did not communicate with anyone so closely for a long time.

Today, the designer keeps silent about many facts from life. However, in 2010, Karl Lagerfeld and his boyfriend, the French model-man Batista Giabiconi announced their relationship. Handsome gave his patron on Christmas Eve Siamese cat, which immediately won the heart of the designer. He gives all his love to his beloved Shuppet, who even wanted to marry, if he could.
