LAGERFELD LEGACY - A FASHION DRAWING MASTERCLASS With TONY GREEN
KARL LAGERFELD. What image comes to mind? Monochrome, sunglasses, black jacket , white high collared shirt, black leather gloves. A true icon!
The gloves were often fingerless. This allowed for constant drawing. Drawing was the medium through which Lagerfeld's ideas flowed and were communicated. Plucking ideas from his imagination, putting them on paper, letting them evolve. The development of his design visions can be traced through the sketch books and folders of his work that are now highly sought after by collectors. `A multitude of drawings created with a range of media that included correction fluid and eye liner.
Lagerfeld's legacy is as uncompromising as it is far reaching. At its heart is a constant drawing practice and a passion for putting pen to paper that cannot fail to inspire the visual artist.
