Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty

Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty

by

The Metropolitan Museum of Art revealed a special exhibit featuring the work of German-born designer Karl Lagerfeld, focusing on his methodology with approximately 150 pieces on display accompanied by his sketches. The museum announced the exhibit in Paris in September 2022 with Andrew Bolton, curator in charge of the Costume Institute.

“The exhibition will explore Lagerfeld’s complex working methodology, tracing the evolution of his fashions from the two-dimensional to the three-dimensional,” says Bolton. “The fluid lines of his sketches found expression in recurring aesthetic themes in his fashions, uniting his designs for Balmain, Patou, Chloé, Fendi, Chanel and his eponymous label, Karl Lagerfeld, creating a diverse and prolific body of work unparalleled in the history of fashion.”
