A look inside the Karl Lagerfeld memorial.
PARIS — With monumental portraits of Karl Lagerfeld framing the vast Grand Palais, guests arriving in Paris for the “Karl For Ever” celebration gaped with awe, wonder, respect and affection for the late designer, who died in February after an unprecedented fashion career.
As guests arrived, luxury worlds collided. LVMH Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton chairman and chief executive officer Bernard Arnault was having a chat with Chanel ceo Alain Wertheimer, who had removed his jacket in the balmy venue. Kering ceo François-Henri Pinault arrived and posed for photos with LVMH’s Sidney Toledano and Chanel fashion president Bruno Pavlovsky.“I knew him personally not professionally. Salma [Hayek] was close to him and I met him through her,” Pinault said. “His studio was 50 meters away from my apartment in Paris, so there were epic moments with Salma. He was so free, and very respectful, very nice when you knew him on a personal basis.
Swinton, dressed in a tweed peplum jacket and bloomers, recited an extract from Virginia Woolf’s “Orlando,” one of the designer’s favorite works. “Clothes wear us and not we them,” she declared. “They change our view of the world, and the world’s view of us.”
