He wasn’t mean at all, just realistic in his world views and very direct. You won’t achieve such lofty goals by being everybody’s darling.

[@greggoryjohnson156]

I remember being in college during the mid 1980’s and buying Karl Lagerfeld cologne. I felt like a rock star experiencing an awesome pleasure of life. Thank you Karl Lagerfeld ❤.

[@johntucker9326]

This guy has done his homework and comes well informed and well prepared. A refreshing and urgently needed change from coping with clearly less gifted, over opionated, steam in their Ss, whining fashion queens.

[@Duhbaby2348h]

So you like him because you don’t like women😂😂😂😂

[@regplate2923]

Don’t know why people got so upset by the things he said. He was right in some cases and it’s up to each of us to be upset or not.

[@Duhbaby2348h]

He definitely wasn’t right about a lot of things and as you said, it’s up to us to be upset or not each individual person has their own thoughts and opinions it’s called being a human being

[@JashanSamra-up4uy]

He was right in some cases and wrong in a lot !

[@lgempet2869]

Yes, I often agreed w/him on his various statements & not on others….it’s fine. He was entitled to his opinion, just like we all should be. That’s what’s wrong w/society right now (among other things): somehow people aren’t entitled to their opinion anymore w/o punitive consequences assuming you’re on the “wrong” side of popular group think.

[@JakeMcTevia]

Love KL. His line is so affordable and to know how many houses he designed for is truly inspiring I do enjoy the collabs between the houses, whether it be "Fast Fashion" or the "Fendace" Collection of which I adore. I also appreciate Donatella doing her rendition of Lagerfeld.

[@luxecollective]

Yesss! Whats your favourite Karl era?

[@JakeMcTevia]

@@luxecollective Chanel. Loved all the runways he created. like Supermarket?! Who does that?! the Chanel bags in the meat packages had my dying

[@luxecollective]

@@JakeMcTevia yess he’s such a creative genius

[@MYTHOUGHTS46]

Affordable Clothes You're clearly rich if you think that Chanel is Affordable?????

[@mina_ophelia5067]

I love how Karl embrace the Chanel style in modern time, no one could do the same classy and modern touch as Karl does! Maybe he's mean, but a great worker and if you want the perfection, Tom Ford do the same, you must be a perfectionist, a little OCD let me say 😅. I understand him because I'm the same. But There's no one like Karl and he will be the best and most powerful fashion director of this time.

[@bodieshofner8566]

Karl is a legend

[@CJ.1998X.Y.Z]

You deserve more views. This was a wonderful documentary.

[@marcheprovencal592]

I agree, well done

[@mattbonanza9032]

Pleasure to watch and listen to you. Instantly subscribed after first video watched 😊👍

[@Circephillips-lu3fm]

Love your channel + iv commented before but doing it and forgetting it is a big concept in the spiritual magickal arts. Of course he knew more than he talked about and one of my regrets is that I will never meet him. GOOD WORK! Your channel and Karl both.

[@ericshippie1563]

He is actually quite funny. I recently bought LAGERFELD for men. It reminds me of my teens. My mom bought it for me in 1988. It cost 75. US.$. I now got it at Walgreens for- obviously alot less. But I wont be taundry and discuss how much. I still love it, but I recently learned about reformulations. Its a shame. Viva K. L.

[@bostanarudan]

this video was amazing, needs more apreciation

[@soyasuwabe7898]

He is right about sweatpants.

[@johntucker9326]

Only as they apply to the bloated! Since his comment, they have reached a much wider (and slimmer) audience in a host of interesting fabrics and embellishments, hence evolving to a conscious and sometimes costly fashion choice - especially as "street chic" - and not just a dreary uni dimensional necessity for our grocery loving bretheren!

[@57113]

Karl is absolutely right, there is nothing worse than a loose pair of baggy sweat pants on a man or woman, especially an overweight man or woman. Disgusting! 😂 16:06

[@sjg5994]

😂😂😂....I guess I live the "defeated" life from time to time.

[@nancyblackett8777]

Obese people are visually disgusting no matter what they wear Leisurewear is also, in every way disgusting.

Thank you for this! New subscriber here! I can’t wait to see the costumes of THIS year’s Met Gala!! ❤

[@drlessismore]

Great video. Really enjoyed it 👏🏼

[@luxecollective]

Thanks so much! Means a lot ❤

[@lgempet2869]

Karl may or may not have been “lonely,” but most true artists tend to be of a singular mind/singularly-focused and so it’s not unusual that they often don’t marry since their work IS their life. Really not surprising.

[@gaminggazonk]

Wow I have one pair of shoes and a pair of tshirts and one set of track pants and sweater with his cartoonish logo on them. Never knew he was this influential and important. This video was enjoyable to watch.

[@suzycreamchez123]

Really enjoyed this quick, informative and to the point. I kept wondering about the presenter's accent. Scouse?

Thank you, really interesting.

He was not mean he was real and honest and didnt sugar coat. He was grand and talented.

[@anuglymf93]

Can you do a video about Donatella Versace?

[@David-kj6ng]

“Represent - fear of god” t-shirts are sign of defeat. I’m sorry I just had to 😂 love this video! Keep up the great videos! ❤

Rest in Peace, Karl Lagerfeld!

[@Pfukr]

You missed his iconic men’s cologne from the late 70s

[@TheMatriarch-uf6xs]

“At the age of 14, frustrated by the lack of opportunity, he moved”

[@TiemposDePaz]

Was he lonely? I didn't get that at all. Because he didn't marry or have kids? Hmm. That's very disrespectful for how loved he was.

[@palomavega604]

And PS, if a German likes you, they will go out-of-the-way to be exceedingly kind, but you will also always know where you stand with them simply because they will be very honest or what we might call America blunt❤

[@maxxxrhino6390]

Karl was a genius and a master at his craft , he a designing up to 17 collections per year, the rest is irrelevant gossip

[@m1012t]

do you know about the kpop artist CL? Because your logo literally looks like hers 👀 or someone got heavily inspired by her logo lol

[@FilipeFela]

I love cl

[@JBryc3]

1:42 the music building up is making me scared

[@szesze-bw8fz]

Geniuses are rare and deserve more room than commoners like us.🙄

[@tonygarcia5197]

Sorry Karl, I’ve only known fashion designers who draw ALL of their creations. I don’t what he’s talking about. Yes, Karl was a one of MANY great fashion designers. But YSL, Galliano Valentino were FANTASTIC!!!!

[@regplate2923]

I am glad I have found this channel, it’s quick and sparing of unnecessary info BUT you do need to do a bit of work/research on your pronunciation. Oh, and you can’t blame it on your mildly scouse accent either, sorry. 😀

[@ringslave]

Let's get things clear, the competition that Karl Largafeld entered, he came second to Yve Saintlaurent, and remained there for the rest of his profession , also he detested Y.S.L.

[@palomavega604]

The average person can be rude every day, and basically not too many people will notice. At the end of the day he was just human, he was creative. He made his mark, and he died, like the rest of us will, and one way or another. And yes, we can choose to be offended or not free speech, etc. and we should not forget He is German. I’ve worked for several Germans and the first thing they tell you when they start to actually like you is that they are going to be very blunt and that’s just how they are. Every culture has its peculiarities and viva la difference ! You have to admit it gives us a something to talk about because of course everybody knows who he is, so we can all be a AGAHST! LOL, so why don’t we all in our own way just follow his lead and get a life where we don’t have to have a single thought for what other people are saying, in fact, do the opposite, then be very polite, cordial, and overly apologetic and complementary, and guess what somebody will fault you for that too! I’m just a fan of human beings. It’s not any particular person, but I do admire the creativity. And a good turn of a phrase for instance, in this case what Chanel said or maybe she didn’t but it doesn’t matter. It’s great whoever pinned it. “ I don’t care what you think about me, because, I don’t think about you at all.!😂🎉

[@MultiSUPERLATIVO]

A former model of this man has accused him of predatory sex assault against her, in the backstage room in London. The doc is availabe here on youtube. "Karl Lagerfeld a survivor's account of sexual abuse in the fashion industry". She made the accusations before his death, in case someone says she did it when he no longer can defend himself. Not everything that glitters is gold.

[@meelo1978]

What do i think of hi-end designers working for fast fashion labels... show me the money 😁

[@diannafiorentino7699]

The music is to loud.

[@Despicable_G]

Carl didnt join chanel as creative director

[@MYSTERIOMUSIK]

I love how you just brushed him off as "a little harsh" as if he hasn't said absolutely appalling things about people's bodies.... it's funny because yes the fashion world is ruthless but that ruthlessness doesn't deserve to stand in the way of progress.

[@JimOverbeckgenius]

Nah, poor man = he missed putting my Art on coats, skirts, shirts, kerchiefs etc = his everlasting regret!

[@makdle66]

I don't understand why he like that that horrid life form Wintour are so highly regarded. This man only found success under the well established previous work of other fashion houses. His own brand was a failure and absolutely not genius. I guess publicity, being a horrible person who says shocking offensive things is what makes a legend more than their work.

[@uav5594]

What did he say that is so shocking?

[@makdle66]

@@uav5594 It's out there, his own words, just search his name and scandalous or outrageous and you have endless hours of his own recorded nonsensical out of touch downright mean words.

[@r.andrewlilwall-smith2282]

Brilliant, visually well done, and very, very informative, but PLEASE TALK SLOWER...!!!

[@LlyleHunter]

He was a fashion genius but he was creepy. I was in a luxury hotel during fashion week in New York years ago and having a lovely dinner when he sent his runway models into the dining room to walk through the dining room and sneer at anyone who looked like they were having a happy life.

[@PS-ru2ov]

Hebrews 9v27 just as people are destined to die once, and after that to face judgment, 28 so Christ was sacrificed once to take away the sins of many; and he will appear a second time, not to bear sin, but to bring salvation to those who are waiting for him.

Narator cant even pronounce Lycee correctly. Joke.

[@prettypinklady69]

Yeah, ok, but what about his fatphobia, transphobia, and all of his other problematic behaviours? I get liking the fashions created by whomever you like, but, its truly as problematic as liking the art of a pedophile. Think about that before you drag me. Of course, that's just my opinion and im only one person, but im not the only person who feels this way about KL.

He’s dead and people are complex, also luxe collective guy already said he had spicy hot takes so chill.
