The 1990s Episode 4: Karl Lagerfeld and The Role of Creative Director
Karl Lagerfeld reinvented the role of designer as a creative director, rather than just an in-house couturier. That model, which is standard today, came to wider prominence in the 90’s — a shift which will be perhaps his most lasting legacy. Lagerfeld channeled the zeitgeist and made fundamental changes to the production and marketing of every house he worked at, but most famously, Karl reinvigorated the legendary house of Chanel. His success at Chanel became the blueprint for creative directors of legacy fashion houses. Episode 4: Karl Lagerfled & The Role of Creative Director features guest interviews with Amanda Harlech, Anna Wintour, Kim Jenkins, Eric Wright, Tom Ford, and Claudia Schiffer.
