The forthcoming exhibition and Monday’s event will honor the famed designer. His controversies will be less on display.
“I think that everything that Karl represented is something that we all generally are very against,” said Senam Attipoe, 23, who is one of the organizers of the HFTMG account. “We value democratization. He valued exclusivity, and he demonstrated that throughout his career. And we value inclusivity and creativity. He valued celebrity, and we value self-expression.”
William Middleton, a veteran fashion reporter who published a definitive biography of Lagerfeld in February, said that those who are skeptical about celebrating Lagerfeld should “decide if they feel that the 85 years of life that this person lived and the 65-year career, if it’s fair to judge both of those by this half-dozen or 10 or dozen comments that were made over the years. If they think after reading about his life, that those comments do define him, that’s certainly their choice.
For the HFTMG, it’s the fact that Lagerfeld’s controversies go unmentioned in the exhibition that upsets the group most. “I think that’s kind of a very unfair introduction to him, because it’s not like, ‘Oh, his design career is to the left, and then his problematic history is to the right,’” said Rebeca Spitz, 23. “It’s this entangled thing that happened over a series of years, and it’s completely incorporated into his career and legacy.
