Round 2 - 2023 (Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty / In Honor of Karl) - Match 53 of 53
Cardi B (Chenpeng), left
“Cardi had expressed very early on a fondness for classic and elegant looks which also pay tribute to Monsieur Lagerfeld’s styles that have stood the test of time. Taking cues from Monsieur Lagerfeld’s interpretation of the iconic codes from the House of Chanel, I then created an exquisite black ballgown with dramatic camellia and matelassé details whilst still infusing my own signature quilted puffer style. The design consisted of over 600 camellia petals that took more than 300 atelier hours to complete. It is not only a testimony to design craftsmanship, but more importantly, an ode to Monsieur Lagerfeld’s everlasting legacy.” (x)
vs. Conan Gray (Balmain), right
“Singer-songwriter Conan Gray channels an exquisite couture take on Karl Lagerfeld’s signature black-and-white suiting in custom Balmain for this year’s Met Gala.” “Singer Conan Gray's was polished off with a timeless white shirt, a black tie and embroidered camelia, leather diamond quilted high heel pants, and accessorised with a black pearl embellished fan, referencing one of Lagerfeld's favourite accessories.” (x) (x)
