On the one-year anniversary of his death, we're looking back at the life and work of the singular Karl Lagerfeld.
Over a career that spanned more than 60 years, designer Karl Lagerfeld, who died on February 19, 2019 at 85, was one of the most recognizable figures in the fashion industry, and beyond. Here, a time line of the pivotal moments.• After winning an award in the coats category at the International Wool Secretariat, Lagerfeld is hired as an assistant to Pierre Balmain, a job he serves until 1958.• The designer joins Jean Patou, where he designs 10 couture collections during his five-year tenure.
• Lagerfeld is set to launch his first perfume under Chloé. He teams with pharmaceutical giant Eli Lilly to create a separate company, called Parfums Lagerfeld.• While Lagerfeld has become known at Chanel for his elaborate fashion show sets, he actually started the practice during his time at Chloé, most notably his “Fellini’s Casanova” show.
