Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty

Through July 16th the Costume Institute’s spring exhibition at The Met has showcased the work of Karl Lagerfeld focusing on the designer’s style from the 1950’s to his final collection in 2019. The retrospective spotlight’s his technique with 150 pieces on display that are accompanied by sketches that underscore a creative process and the collaborative relationships with premières and head seamstresses.  Karl Lagerfeld created a diverse and prolific body of work unparalleled in the history of fashion.

Absolutely love the recreated work table of the artist/designer. I’m inspired and will add to my work bench at home.,

As a member of the museum use the “early access'” to see as much of the exhibition with little interference.
