The iconic designer, Karl Lagerfeld, Has Died at 85
You may not recognise Karl Lagerfield, however, if you were to see the whole array of brands and trends that he has inspired and created then you would likely see why he is considered one of the most influential and recognisable fashion designers of the 20th century.
Well, sadly the iconic creative was declared dead at the age of 85 on the 19th of February. Specifically, the designer tragically passed away in Paris, however, the label he worked so closely with, Chanel, was the first to point out that it was only fitting as it was the city he helped turn into the fashion capital of the world.
as for how his death was received, of course, it was a shock, although rumours began emerging of his possible health issues after he didn’t make an appearance at his Chanel show in late January. The fashion house at the time put it down to tiredness, however, it was likely due to the complications he was facing with pancreatic cancer.
