Brilliant Karl




The House of Chanel is based on tradition, just like the iconic suit that bears its name. “The very name Chanel defies all concepts of time.” (Daniele Bott) Coco Chanel is the foundation of that name. She is the fabric, body, and silhouette. If Coco were the silhouette, then Karl Lagerfeld would be the extravagant trim. He took a classic, timeless, iconic palate, and gave it the power to influence yet another century. No one does Resort like Lagerfeld!
