Karl Lagerfeld Fall 2010

Karl Lagerfeld is an extraordinary modernist—O.K., or could be considered a post modernist. The Karl Lagerfeld Fall 2010 signature line is focused on the future with a strong dark edge. Big hair, high shiny latex in the form of leggings and headbands, and oh-so vibrant red lips; a line defined by leanness, accentuated by skinny pants worn under asymmetrically, tailored suits and pencil skirts—á la Lagerfeld, with a tendency toward severe clothes.

Herr Lagerfeld is an irrepressible free agent. “I like to be a stranger wherever I go. Because I like this position of detachment, I want to be nobody,” he remarks.

A free agent status suggests a kind of freedom without the extras. And that’s definitely my aesthetic. Minimalism? Make that futurism.

  1. Amazing work.

  3. Free agent status don’t come easy. Great find Vicky!

  4. Thank you, Paul. The feeling of detachment from his surroundings can be Mr. Lagerfeld’s highest “luxury.” :)
