IDEAS OF KARL LAGERFELD

1.Futurism

The ever-onward Karl Lagerfeld is not inclined to the backward glance. So in a season when everyone else is doing their version of the 1980's, a decade he helped define, it made perfect sense that he was focused on the 2080's—or, OK, at least the future.

2. Music

The metal-machine music of Metronomy introduced a collection whose thrust was technology and architecture. The models wore fur helmets with inset iPods (cushioning against the crash?), and Lagerfeld referred to the built-out shoulder that defined the silhouette as "the bridge."

Also, In Chanel 08 S/S RTW collection, Karl Lagerfeld also used guitar as a accessories.
So, we can know that the idea of the Karl Lagerfeld design is mutually related, including Chanel, Karl Lagerfeld collection and Fendi.


3. Black

Here's the Karl Lagerfeld Fall 2009 collection

Their clothes, mostly dark, were cut with narrow flying panels, oddly textured with what looked at a glance like worn-through or dust-spattered fabrics and frayed edges.

Also, in Chanel Fall 09 RTW collection, Karl Lagerfeld also used lots of black.
The common factor of these 3 fall 2009 collection is the majority of the outfits is in black color.

4. Vintage

Vintage style seems will be a hit in next season. It once appeared in Fall 2003 Ready-to-wear collection. In the 2009 S/S collection, Karl Lagerfeld picked a guitar as accessories. However, the guitar is not a metal and rock one, that is for the folk song. So, I think natural vintage may becme one of the idea for next season.
