This investigation into the art of Karl Lagerfeld (1933-2019) explores his extraordinary sixty-five-year career, from designs for Chloé and Fendi in the 1960s and 1970s to his celebrated leadership in the 1980s and beyond in his own brand. Inspired by the "line of beauty" theorized by the 18th century English painter William Hogarth, this dazzling publication explores the straight and meandering "lines" and their intersections in Lagerfeld's work as a means of understanding his unique creative process.
