I have always wondered why the greatest fashion designer of the twentieth century (yes, I said it, Karl Lagerfeld) is the greatest fashion designer of the twentieth century) has been unable to apply his genius to his own name. It is not that this collection is terrible, far from it, but it is certainly not as fantastic as what he does for Chanel or Fendi. I know this is supposed to be a bit more “street” than the other collections, so in no way is it competitive, but it feels quite far behind his other work.
I Love…
this incredible jacket. The front tails, the narrow sleeves, the high yoke line, and the straight bodice. It is bizarre but beautiful.
a white dress paired with shiny black leggings and headband.
the softness of this pleated dress with the shiny black leggings.
I Loathe…
the sharp, shiny inserts on this jacket. They look a bit "young designer."
the "sporty" seams on this jacket.
