Karl Lagerfeld, the iconic fashion designer, who died at the age of 85 in Paris on Tuesday had a deep Indian connect. After his 2011 visit to India, he incorporated Indian fabric and accessories into a few of his designs.
According to French magazine Closer, the German-born designer was not keeping well and breathed his last on Tuesday in a Paris hospital.
Lagerfeld was the creative director of the luxury brand Chanel since 1983 and was known for his eclectic designs. He also designed collections for Fendi, Macey’s, Chloé, Hogan, Falabella among others.
In a show he organised in 2011 entitled Paris-Bombay Metiers de’Art show, he took inspiration from India and incorporated heavy silks and traditional South Asian Teekas on the women who walked the ramp.
