Nobody did it any better than Karl Lagerfeld, who died in 2019 after four decades as a lion king in the fashion world. Beginning as a somewhat ridiculous outsider from Germany, Lagerfeld used his genius for self-invention to wind up designing for Fendi, resurrecting the moribund house of Chanel and creating a personal look so distinctive white hair, dark sunglasses, fingerless gloves and crisp detachable collars that it could serve as the emoji for Fashion Designer.
The show 'Becoming Karl Lagerfeld' delves into emblematic incidents in Lagerfeld's life that reveal his ambition, loneliness, and keen sense of self-protection. Through the portrayal of Jacques de Bascher and Karl, the series offers a deeper insight into Lagerfeld's relentless drive and self-made image.
