The Most Loved And Hated Designer


The theme for this year’s Met Gala will be “Karl Lagerfeld: A line of beauty," is a nod to Lagerfeld's belief that beauty can be found in simplicity and elegance. The Met Gala is known for its extravagant and over-the-top fashion looks, but this theme encourages designers to focus on clean lines, minimalism, and elegance. Also why not a little provocative?


Karl Lagerfeld was a fashion icon who was both revered and reviled in the industry. On one hand, he was known for his creative genius and his ability to reinvent fashion time and time again. He was a visionary who brought new life to established brands like Chanel and Fendi, and his designs were often imitated by other designers. On the other hand, Lagerfeld was also known for his controversial statements, which often landed him in hot water with the public.


He was criticized for making insensitive comments about women's bodies, race, and other sensitive topics. Some people saw him as an arrogant and out-of-touch figure who embodied the worst aspects of the fashion industry. Despite the mixed opinions about him, there is no denying that Lagerfeld left an indelible mark on the fashion world. His legacy will continue to inspire and divide people for years to come.



Fashion enthusiasts around the world are eagerly anticipating the 2023 Met Gala, where they will see how designers interpret Karl Lagerfeld's legacy and vision for beauty. From sleek black suits to classic Chanel-inspired looks, we can expect to see a wide range of styles that pay tribute to one of the biggest German visionary, Karl Otto Lagerfeld.
