Karl Lagerfeld's legacy in the world of fashion is unrivaled. His highly curated public persona and look have made him one of the most documented and photographed designers of all time. However, as Patrick Mauriès points out in his new book with Marie Kalt, little attention has been paid to Karl's homes, even though he 'changed his decor even more often than his image' (Mauriès 7).
Until now, that is. Karl's home decor will be explored extensively in the highly anticipated retrospective on his homes: Karl Lagerfeld: A Life in Houses by Patrick Mauriès and Marie Kalk, available in January 2024. The book dives into the history of each of Lagerfeld's homes, exploring the furniture put together by some of the best interior designers and artists of the time.
